recommended for use outdoors. This is especially the case for
installations where furniture is needed around swimming pools or exposed
to the elements constantly. With special finish treatments and proper
cushion fill, our items can be used outdoors but should not be left
outdoors. It is always important to notify us at the time of order
regarding outdoor use. There is an additional charge fir exterior
finishes and special cushion fill.

can be stained or painted in a variety of colors. We offer a standard
range of stain colors, but you are not limited to them. Custom color
stains and paint can be used to finish our furniture. There is a charge
for any finish other than our natural product color with clear sealer
and varnish.

Because paint literally lays on top of
the surface, unlike stain which is absorbed a painted finish will show
signs of wear and tear more likely than stained finishes. The is
especially true of surfaces that receive a great deal of use, like
desk or tables. In these instance we recommend a glass top.

on the majority of our pieces. It is often required that a sketch be
submitted for price quotation of custom design and dimensions are being

dry thoroughly with a cloth after washing. In extreme cases it may be
necessary to return the piece to our factory for sanding a refinishing.
