How long will it take?
Each piece follows a clear timeline: order confirmed → production → quality check → delivery. Estimated delivery windows are shown on every product page, and we’ll keep you updated along the way.

Edits to finishes or quantities are possible before production begins. Address changes can be made anytime before shipment. Once in production, orders cannot be canceled.
What should I expect on delivery day?
If White-glove delivery is included, our partner schedules a time, brings the piece inside, places it in your room of choice, and removes packaging. Please ensure clear access and have someone present to sign.
