Introduced at CES 2026, the innovative device incorporates rapid Qi2 wireless charging into an elegant home addition.

Twelve South has introduced “Valet” – a wireless charging tray encased in Nappa leather that emphasises appearance and functionality – at CES 2026, characterising the product as “a beautiful home object first and a sophisticated wireless charger second.”
Twelve South, recognised for its high-quality electronic accessories, has created Valet to enhance your home by seamlessly integrating with your nightstand, workstation, and other furnishings. The brand relies on its latest product to minimise clutter by providing a unified, thoughtfully designed space for charging your phone and storing things.

The Valet's primary structure is made from a weighted zinc alloy and is available in black or taupe, both featuring the same soft Nappa leather exterior. It includes an adjustable outer frame that can be effortlessly detached, allowing users to modify its appearance and texture, with a total of four colour options: two that complement the main body, in addition to brown or ecru. The surface functions as a rapid Qi2-certified wireless charger, providing up to 15W of juice to compatible smartphones, while a concealed USB-C connector beneath enables charging of a second item, such as earbuds or a smartwatch, without creating visual clutter.
The device includes a discreet "Goodnight Glow" that momentarily activates to indicate charging before dissipating, reducing illumination in low-light settings, along with integrated wire management in the base that enables the tray to be arranged neatly from various angles.
Pre-orders are currently available in the U.S. on the brand's website, priced at $179.99 USD, with shipping commencing on January 15. Global availability will occur later this year.
