MY ORDER
How can I track the status of my order?
Since we do not have all the necessary information to access your order, only your retailer can provide answers. However, if your retailer is unable to provide the information, they can contact our service team.

For any questions on modifying an order, please contact your retailer. However, it is important to note that since each piece of furniture is custom-made, there is a chance that no changes can be made depending on the status of your order.
CLEANING AND CARE
How can I properly maintain and clean my wood furniture?
- Solid wood is very sensitive to changes in temperature and humidity since it is a living material. To protect your furniture, keep the humidity level constant, ideally between 30% and 50%. If this condition is not met, the furniture may crack or warp, and the finish may be affected.
- Store table leaves as close as possible to the table so that they are kept at the same humidity level. It is preferable to store dining room table leaves in an upstairs closet than in a damp basement.
- Avoid placing furniture directly next to radiators, heating vents or wood-burning stoves.
- Do not use polish, wax, abrasives or products with alcohol or ammonia, which could damage the finish of your furniture.
- Never place a hot object directly on your table, as this will produce heat marks. We recommend protecting your table with a tablecloth or placemats when in use, to help prevent scratches.
- Never leave liquid directly on the wood, as this could damage your furniture—the wood could crack and warp.
- To protect your furniture finish, avoid daily exposure to direct sunlight.
How can I access the cleaning recommendations for the fabric on my chairs and stools?
To learn more about caring for your fabric, please look under your product. You should find a label with specific recommendations for your fabric. However, if there is no label under your furniture, please check your invoice for the fabric code or contact your retailer and they will be able to provide it. You can also refer to the picture below to find specific recommendations for your fabric.
Maintaining and cleaning chair glides
