The brand’s biggest furniture launch yet embraces the collected-home aesthetic and a philosophy of buying fewer, better pieces designed to last
HIGH POINT — At the fall High Point Market, Los Angeles-based lighting and home decor company Jamie Young Co. is launching its biggest collection of furniture to date, starting with 25 pieces in case goods and seating.
“Even though we’re a legacy brand, in a lot of ways, we’re also a startup, because we continue to reinvent,” said Jamie Young, president, who established the brand in 1997.
“I’ve always wanted to do more furniture and take our DNA and point of view and expand it,” Young added. Young and her team have been working on the collection for 18 months. During its development, tariffs weren’t without their challenges, but Young said it ultimately was “helpful,” as she and her team ended up discovering new furniture manufacturers and expanding their sources around the world.

The new furniture collection also comes as consumers and retailers are embracing interiors that feel collected over time, rather than purchased all at once. At the spring High Point Market, one of the biggest trends seen across showrooms was the collected home, or pieces that look timeworn or inherited, rather than brand new. Items were deliberately mismatched, a departure from once-popular matching room sets, and chairs, for example, were upholstered in floral patterns that looked as if they arrived from a grandparent’s home. Young said that the goal of the company’s furniture expansion is to imbue a similar sort of timelessness.
The materiality of the collection — which spans lighting, cabinets, credenzas, nightstands, stools and seating — includes ceramic, oil-rubbed bronze, antiqued brass, solid oak and velvet, all of which reinforce the collected aesthetic. Rather than follow a single design language, the pieces embrace contrast. In addition to the materials selection, longevity and craftsmanship were equally important in the collection’s development.

“We’ve always used the (phrases) quiet luxury and organic luxury, and I think those things continue to stay true to the brand and to how we develop products,” said Young.
She continued: “I think it goes with producing products that can last. Sort of like fast fashion; it’s the opposite of what people are trying to do in their homes. They’re recycling antiques; they’re going and finding what their great-aunt had in her house and putting that in. And then their new purchases need to be things that could last a long time. We are definitely wanting to do more of that, where each new piece means something.”

Young said she’s not in a position to introduce 500 or 1,000 new pieces all the time, nor does she want to be. Following this launch, Jamie Young Co. will introduce another 65 pieces at the April 2027 High Point Market.
“I want the pieces to be so highly curated,” Young added. “I want the pieces to make sense so that when someone’s going to spend money, they know that they’re going to get something that’s going to last and that’s really comfortable.”
Jamie Young Co.’s collection also offers clear good-better-best options.
“We are focused on giving the best of what we can per category while still staying very conscious of how much it costs,” Young said.
The price points of the new collection range from $517 to $4,950.
The company shows in Space D223 of the International Home Furnishings Center.
