For fabrics from our designer brands, you can order directly from our fabric supplier (or we can help you to order them). For our own fabrics, we gladly send fabric swatch samples to our clients. Our swatches are free. We charge a small shipping cost (30 to 45 USD depending on the number of swatches you would like and the shipping speed) for sending these to our clients from overseas. Once the client places an order with us, we will deduct this shipping cost from the total amount of the order, so the eventual cost is on us. 😊

We stuff our throw pillows with goose down feather. If you are allergenic to down and need Trillium, please do let us know. We do offer other options.
"High Density Foam" is a material commonly used in furniture construction for structure and stability. Generally speaking, the higher the density, the longer the foam (together with your furniture) will maintain its shape. A foam density index of 23kg/m3 or above is considered high density. We use foam density of 45kg/m3 and above.
Yes, we wrap the memory foam with a layer of Dacron to reduce the friction between the foam and the fabric.
Most of our clients place their sofas on carpets so these sofas will not slip about. If you plan to place your sofas on wooden floors, please do contact us prior to shipping. We can include anti-slippery mats in your packages.
Yes, our French daybed sofas are fully hand upholstered with a zipper closure. As they are fully upholstered and hand tufted, the covers can not be removed without professional help. If you have small children or pets at home, and would like to have a seating pad to cover/protect your sofa pieces, we do offer customized additional seating pads to go along with your sofa pieces. Please see our product page.
For cleaning, these fabrics can be spot cleaned or treated with professional sofa cleaning services.
Yes, we do make our sofas with both indoor and outdoor options. Our outdoor sofas are constructed completely differently from our indoor sofas. They are covered with outdoor fabrics that are water repellent and water resistant. The water will bead on the fabric and slide off. The bottoms of the outdoor versions are upholstered in a mesh fabric that is breathable and will help drainage and void moldy foam. We switch the inner foams with the mildew resistant, acoustical performance Dacron outdoor foams & quick drying Dacron wraps. The original wooden structures inside are replaced with stainless steel mechanisms. This will ensure there won't be anything rotten, fungus, or mold inside from the humidity of the weather.
We are not fast furniture made on the cheap and susceptible to warping and bending. All of our seat cushions are constructed with a premium high-resiliency and high-density 2.81LB/ft3 foam core that is wrapped in Dacron.
Our cushions can be constructed with lower density memory foams but any foams with density lower than 1.8LB/ft3 will collapse over time. We can also use higher density memory foams based on your request.
We use 7.5 inch high density foam mattress with no bars, no springs, and the pure foam mattress = pure comfort.
We do not use suspensions or metal springs with our French sofa beds. However, if you have a particular request to a certain type of sofa couch, please chat with us.
We do our absolute best to ensure your new furniture arrives to you in perfect condition, but sometimes things can happen out of our control during the shipping process.

Our sofas are packaged with the utmost care. We do not use crates as the wooden pieces can harm the furniture and cause injury. We pack with bubble wraps and at least four layers of ABE flute triple wall cardboards. The packages are then shipped from our studio via trucks to the logistics company.

Once the package finishes the customs clearance, the team will contact you to schedule a mutually agreed upon delivery time.
