Jean Stoffer with her daughter and design partner Grace Start showcase the Stoffer Home Morris work table topped with Cambria’s Ironsbridge™ design
Acclaimed designer Jean Stoffer’s vision to provide heirloom quality décor lead her team, including her daughter and design partner Grace Start, to create a collection of freestanding furnishings. This versatile collection was recently introduced to excited design enthusiasts and includes timelessly designed storage cupboards, hutches, bookcases, and a beautiful island work table that can be topped with five different Cambria designs personally selected by Stoffer.
The inspiration for this new freestanding furniture collection sprang from designer Jean Stoffer’s research into English kitchens where unfitted décor items like dish dressers and work tables often move with people from home to home. A countertop offering to pair with a freestanding island in the collection would complete the vision. Thus, a new partnership emerged between Stoffer Home and Cambria. A natural next step was to expand this ease of access to high-quality countertops to Stoffer’s bathroom vanity collection. Now, homeowers and designers can more easily create bespoke spaces with classically designed pieces that are both beautiful and durable.

Built to Last
Freestanding kitchen furnishings are unfitted and allow for more flexibility in design since they can be rearranged and repurposed as your needs evolve over time. Speaking of “over time,” the heirloom quality of Stoffer’s freestanding collection also supports the sustainable and sentimental desire to hand down useful pieces through generations.
A Touch of Tradition
Freestanding options are great for accommodating different design styles. Although the design history of unfitted furnishings leans toward a more classic or vintage aesthetic, freestanding pieces can also work well in more casual or relaxed settings—think modern cottage kitchens. A combination of fitted and freestanding cabinetry is a charming way to enhance your kitchen’s character, combining modern efficiency with a touch of traditional elegance.
High Design Delivered
Removing friction is a common refrain in the business world and is part of what makes online shopping enjoyable. It’s easy. People seek ease in their busy lives. But interior design and home renovations are often not considered easy things to do. Stoffer’s freestanding furniture collection and bathroom vanity collection offer a point-and-click design solution that makes part of the design process so much easier, but with all the high-end design and quality features that also make the pieces so desirable.

TURNING THE TABLES
The versatility and utility of the Stoffer Home Morris island work table is evidenced by the number of spaces it can be put to work. It can be a freestanding kitchen island or a work table in your laundry room, garden room, or craft room.
Perfect Combination
“I’m aware of quality differences in quartz,” says Stoffer, who selected five Cambria quartz designs as countertop options for the Morris island work table. “A wood top could work but I wanted a surface that is more forgiving and knew Cambria would really be ideal. I feel really strongly about the brand. It’s the perfect combination.”
Beyond Beauty
The durable luxury of a Cambria quartz top resists chips and scratches, and is food safe, nonabsorbent, and stain resistant. It’s easy to clean and never needs sealing. Bonus—Cambria has a transferable Full Lifetime Warranty against manufacturing defects.
Seeing is Believing
Stoffer chose Cambria because it’s a high-end quartz surface with consistent designs so you know exactly what you’re getting. With many other stones, you’ll need to choose from remnants for bathroom vanity tops, otherwise it’s too expensive. And since no two remnants look alike, selecting is more difficult.
