Wood Disclaimer
Our furniture is crafted with natural hardwoods and veneers which will expand/contract according to changes in the environment such as humidity levels and direct sunlight. All furniture needs to be in a climate-controlled environment with as little fluctuation as possible. It will take approximately 12 months for your furniture to acclimate to your environment. During this time, slight movement can be expected. If the product is exposed to extreme environmental changes, the following may occur: separation of materials, cracks due to extreme movement, and checking/delamination of veneer.
Velvet Disclaimer
Velvet fabrics are received into the plant with utmost care to minimize markings in the fabric. Once the velvets are cut and sewn, they are kept in racks to protect them while they await the upholstering team. When the items are upholstered and inspected, they move into the packing department where they are place in a cardboard tray, lightly wrapped in drop cloths, covered with plastic bags, and warmed to tighten the bag. When the bag tightens around the furniture, it will put some pressure on the corners of the upholstery which can and will create impressions in the velvet, depending on the pile height and characteristics of each individual velvet. It is best to open and unpack the upholstered item as soon as it is received at the warehouse. The longer it stays packed, the more difficult it is to brush out any impressions created while in the box. If there are impressions in the fabric, velvet manufacturers suggest brushing the fabric with a soft bristle brush or a soft piece of polyurethane foam to restore the knap.
Leather Disclaimer
Each hide used in the manufacturing of leather products has its own unique characteristics. These natural-occuring characteristics may include, but are not limited to, color differences due to dye absorption variability, grain and/or texture differences, and healed scars or scratches. These "marks of disctinction" are what make each leather piece unique and are not considered flaws.
