Q. Do finishes in collections match?
A. Our furniture is rustic and hand-finished. Pieces will have a consistent overall tone (i.e. light vs. dark); however, there are some variances in the finishes and therefore we cannot guarantee exact matching.

Q. Why doesn’t my furniture look like it does in the catalog/on the website?
A. All of our furniture is handmade in India of native hardwoods. Variations in grain and coloration are a natural feature of hardwood as are knots and other differences in texture. With collections, the best way to determine color is to look at overall similarities in finishes in pieces in the entire collection

Q. Will my furniture crack?
A. All of the wood used to construct our furniture is kiln dried hardwood which minimizes the chance of cracking. Some natural movement at seams is to be expected and will not compromise the structure of the piece. (Please note that seam splitting differs from natural distress.)

Q. What is considered natural distress?
A. Cracks within the wood, knots, indentations and other superficial imperfections are considered natural distress. Also, our furniture is hand-made and there are elements of that construction (filled nail holes, etc.) that can be seen upon close inspection. They blend in with the look of our furniture and add to the rustic charm.

Q. What is the best way to care for my furniture?
A. We recommend daily cleaning with a soft, clean cloth to minimize scratching; annual or semi-annual application of a high quality paste wax to maintain the wood’s natural moisture, and restore patina; and the use of coasters and trivets to protect the surface from discoloration. Please see our Wood Furniture Care document for more detailed care instructions.

Q. How can I repair scratches, dents and water rings?
A. Because stripping the finish is the only way to truly repair scratches, dents and water rings, we strongly recommend seeking professional assistance.
