Care of Products

All pieces are stained or painted and then finished with a clear, satin, acrylic lacquer. These finishes are highly resistant to water and alcohol based liquids, but we recommend that all spills be wiped up immediately. Bright natural light, reflected or direct sunlight or very low humidity can cause changes in the pine that is used in these pieces. Knots, heavy resin streaks, seasonal cracking are all natural characteristics of pine products. As they age and are exposed to light, especially sunlight, these characteristics can become more a prominent part of the finish. This is a natural process in pine furniture giving it an antique look.

Other ordering considerations

Our products are hand finished and the color may vary slightly from piece to piece. We recommend all "groupings" be ordered at the same time in order to be finished with the same lot of paint or stain. In this situation, specify on your order: "Finish to match and ship complete only." This will ensure that all your pieces match but may cause delays if we need to back order one or more items.

All finishes are standard antiqued and distressed.

Stain finishes are available, by request, without antiquing and distressing. In this case, the letter "A" should be omitted from the stain finish number and a written notation, "NO DISTRESSING" made on the order.

Antiquing and distressing are offered at one standard level. We cannot honor requests for variations on the level of antiquing and distressing.

Hardware selection must be specified on all orders before they can be processed. You may also order the pieces without hardware - please specify "NO HARDWARE" on your order.
