Fredericks & Mae began in 2007, when Gabriel Cohen and Giovi Signorile met through a shared love of materials in Brooklyn, NY. A design studio reveling in the art of the gift, they committed to bringing objects into the world that prompt wide eyes, inexplicable delight, and full body chills. Believing that a well chosen gift can be a bolt of connection - they are forever balancing the commodification of joy and the dangers of material accumulation - in an aim to surround ourselves with a few well chosen beautiful things.
