FAQs
What colours, stains and oils can you finish your pieces in?
We finish our pieces in a colour or stain finish with a two-pack technique ideal for everyday living, dining and working. Both stain and colour finished pieces are sealed with the same clear final coat for optimal surface function and aesthetics.
What do the stain and colour finish options cost?
All colour finishes and stains are included in the quoted price of pieces at no additional charge.
On rare occasions, for particular customisation, certain finishes may incur an additional charge.
What fabric do you recommend for your sofas?
We work with a range of fabric suppliers to fit your project including Mokum, Zepel, Warwik, Design of the Times and Kvadrat.
Our standard recommendation on the Wilson is the Eternal Fabric range by Mokum which is 100% linen which is James Dunlop Textiles fabric that is an excellent fit with children and household pets.
We can upholster our pieces in an extensive range of fabrics, as well as nearly any fabric you provide and can work with you for suitable fabric recommendations for commercial and heavy-use areas outside of residential spaces.

What wood do you use?
All our pieces are created using 100% Solid American Oak, unless noted otherwise.
It is possible to have pieces made in other woods including Walnut, Maple, White Ash and Tasmanian Oak.
We recommend American Oak in almost all instances for its remarkable, unique grain quality, stable build and receptive nature to our wide range of finishes.
For the interior framing of upholstered pieces Pine, MDF and Plywood are used in combination for light weight strength, affordability and durability.

How do you ship local?

I am experiencing delays with my lead time.
Generally, our lead times are around 8-10 weeks for solid wood furniture pieces made to order and 12-14 weeks for upholstered pieces made to order. This may vary depending on how busy things are. We will always give you an approximate lead time at the start of an order.
Sometimes orders can be delayed. This usually occurs when we are working with a partner who experiences a delay on their end that we could not have originally foreseen. If this occurs, we will notify you of the issue, and let you know how long the delay will be. We always try to meet delivery deadlines, but sometimes unforeseen issues occur in production.
