For many years now, James Salmond Furniture have worked with David Shaw Furniture in New Zealand, our authorised stockist across Christchurch, Wellington and Auckland. As part of the new launch were the designer furniture pieces the Stratton Cabinet, the Como entertainment Cabinet and the Georgina Arm Chair.

“It was an absolute pleasure to meet new faces and connect with old friends.”, says James. We are very pleased that James Salmond designer furniture pieces were received with excitement by interior designers and clients alike, in particular by interior designer Daniella Norling.

Feeling at home with the classic and artistic pieces that graces James Salmond’s new collection, Daniella had saturated rooms with an elegance that makes any space feel like a million dollars. Seamlessly, James Salmond Furniture’s collection looked like it simply belonged. Her eye for detail has allowed her creativity to flourish and produce interiors that without a doubt will come to inspire homes and spaces across New Zealand.

“He is a creative force who inspires other designers to be better at what they do, and yet he refuses to buy into his own legend, choosing to communicate his design ethos through his work.” Daniella Norling. Read Daniella’s full article on ‘Design Space: Daniella Norling’s rare creatures’.

“A warm thank you to Daniella for sharing the vision in the recent article and making my experience in New Zealand a delight. I love meeting a like minded person and Daniella clearly has a great passion for design. I really appreciate the recognition of Daniella’s kind words in regards to JSF designs. Meeting Daniella was an absolute highlight of the trip.”

The start of my love affair with furniture

“When I was 9, I got a square piece of chipboard and I hammered four three inch nails into four straight white legs that I’d prepainted. And I carefully carried that to my mum’s home and presented her with this new afternoon tea table. My very first piece of furniture was born. My Dad was really nice. He said it was probably best placed in the corner. Because the legs were so very very wobbly. You’d have the say that was my beginnings of my love affair with furniture.
