In the late 15th century, at the height of the Renaissance, a series of Italian explorers embarked on several journeys to find new trading routes to the East Indies. What they found, however, was an entirely new world. Among those early explorers was a nobleman from Florence, the heart of the Renaissance, in Tuscany, Amerigo Vespucci, for whom the continents of North and South America were named. His descriptions of the people and beauty of this new land fired the imaginations of people throughout the Old World. The discovery and exploration of the New World lead to the creation and subsequent rise of the United States of America to become a driving force in the world. America now leads the world in, among other things, pushing innovation and technology to its limits and beyond - much like the people of Tuscany pushed the limits of knowledge during the Renaissance. It is in the Vespucci Collection, available exclusively at Valley Cabinet Center, that the beauty and style of the Tuscan countryside is combined with the modern innovations of America to create a modern Tuscan style for your kitchen.

With the Vespucci Collection, Valley Cabinet Center has created a brand new design style that combines contemporary materials with a classic look. We have taken the time to coordinate the entire line - cabinet stains and styles, countertop and tile colors, accessories and design themes - so that you don't have to worry about it yourself. All of the color choices and themes work together and are interchangable so that you cannot make a wrong choice. Another great benefit to the Vespucci collection is that it actually focuses the number of choices you have to choose from. There are so many options out there for the different aspects of designing your kitchen that it is overwhelming to most people just looking at all the choices let alone figuring out which ones go together well. We invite you to visit our showroom to see our displays and discuss how you can have your very own Vespucci Collection kitchen exclusively at Valley Cabinet Center.
