Due to weather patterns and nature, no two trees are alike; texture, color and density of grain vary within a single tree. This causes the acceptance of stains and sealers to vary also; this we call “Nature’s Mystery” in Solid Hardwood. Knots and swirls will appear in the grain. These naturally occurring patterns are not to be construed as defects, but rather perceived as; “The Personalized Touch of Elegance and Beauty of Nature’s Mystery in Solid Hardwoods.” Although we make every effort to bring you the very best in style and quality, there will be instances where “Nature’s Mystery” will decide the character of your “Uniquely Personalized Piece of Furniture.” So, due to the nature of the wood, stain colors are not guaranteed to be the same as the samples.
Solid wood furniture also naturally responds to changes in temperature and humidity by expansion and contraction. These natural responses should not be perceived as defects, and do not necessarily affect the strength of the furniture.
All of our Wood furniture is protected by numerous layers of a hardened “Catalyzed Conversion Varnish” which is heat and water resistant, but not necessarily heatproof. Please allow the finish to cure for twenty one days prior to heavy use. During this time, do not set warm items on the furniture, and prevent prolonged exposure to water.
