A simple dairy-farmer with great vision, Thomas B. Stanley started transporting the finest lumber from Northeast United States in 1924 via railcar to a small town in southwest Virginia. Bringing together the finest furniture craftsmen, he began creating durable, affordable, high quality furniture for American families. This was the birth of the Stanley Furniture Company. Infusing the company with his spirit of excellence and commitment to high quality, 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 toddlers, tweens and teenagers, keeping their tastes and needs in mind. Originally, the term youth furniture implied furniture that would only last till the child outgrew it. But Young America has changed that completely by creating beautiful pieces that actually transition with your child from the crib to college and beyond.

The Tranquility collection has a distressed golden maple finish that brings warmth and comfort to your child’s room. Simple and functional furniture inspired by the traditional Louis Philippe style yet contemporary to look at, this collection is sure to fit into any theme beautifully, livening it up and providing durable and safe furniture for your child.

The Tranquility series from Young America meets or exceeds the current mandatory government and industry safety standards. Tip restraints, adjustable levelers and automatic drawer stops ensure that the furniture is safe for your child. Lead-based paints and furniture finishes are avoided, to keep your child safe and protected.

Furniture making involves searching for the finest raw materials which could be hardwood, or softwood or a combination of both. To make the wood heat, humidity and wear-resistant it is put through a long process that lasts a few months. When done, the lumber is cut into pieces and matched for color. Carefully selected pieces make the furniture that reaches you.

Highly practical and simple in design, all storage options, beds, desks and chairs in this collection are exquisitely crafted ensuring that they will be a favorite in design for the many years they will last your child.
