In 1924, Thomas B. Stanley, a simple farmer with great foresight, began shipping the finest lumber from Northeast United States via railcar to a small town in southwest Virginia. Getting together the finest furniture craftsmen, he began creating his dream - high quality durable furniture for American families at affordable prices. The Stanley Furniture Company was born of his commitment to excellence and he accomplished many more goals, eventually serving as Governor of the Commonwealth of Virginia in the 1950s.

Young America, a division of the Stanley Furniture company, designs furniture for youth catering to the needs and tastes of teens, tweens and toddlers. The term youth furniture originally implied furniture that would only last till the child outgrew it. But with Young America the concept has changed to mean amazing pieces that are Built to Grow with your child from his toddler days into his high school and college semesters.

The Contentment collection is beautifully simple and highly practical. Taking inspiration from traditional Louis Philippe style with a more contemporary look, each piece of furniture is exquisitely designed to add grace and elegance to your child’s room.

The Contentment series from Young America meets or exceeds the current mandatory government and industry safety standards. Tall furniture that can easily tip over comes with tip restraints to prevent that. Automatic drawer stops make sure the drawers aren’t jerked out and glide smoothly for many years. Adjustable levelers ensure furniture is stable where the ground is uneven, preventing it from tipping over. Avoiding lead-based paints and furniture finishes is also high on the list of the safety precautions that the collection takes into account.

Crafting furniture begins with the search for the best raw material Hardwood, or softwood or a combination of both is used. Making the lumber humidity, heat and wear-resistant is a long process that lasts a few months. Once that’s ready, the wood is cut into pieces and matched for color. Carefully selected pieces are the ones that make it to the final stage to create the furniture that reaches you.

The incredible white finish of this series blends in beautifully with any theme and perfectly complements any color scheme. Durable and transitioning with your child, each bed, dresser, desk, armoire or any other piece will look as good as new even after years of use.
