CONDITIONS OF SALE - Please click here.
SPECIAL ORDERS: All special orders require time, and time requires patience. Our upholstery is available in many fabrics. Our bedrooms and dining rooms can be ordered in different finishes and sizes; hence they all take time to manufacture.
QUALITY: While we sell "first" quality furniture, we do not sell perfect furniture. None exists. If it did, we would sell it. You can expect industry standards, but perfection is impossible. Wood varies, color varies, sizes vary. We sell natural characteristics which enhance the product.
SHOPPING BY PHONE, MAIL, OR EMAIL: If you live too far away to visit us, please allow us to help you long-distance. To obtain a price quote you will need to call or write us with manufacturer's name and style number. If the item is an upholstered piece, you will also need a fabric number and grade.

When you send your order, include two phone numbers, a fax number, and your home address.
