We do not provide traditional lacquer finishing services because our home-based workspace is not set up for that. Here's why: Applying traditional lacquer is a highly toxic process, and pieces that are finished with lacquer off-gas toxic fumes for up to 30 days. So, for the health of your family, our family, and the environment, we offer alternative, high-gloss, water-based finishes instead. They do not offer the same "shell" like appearance, but they are very durable and super shiny with a high gloss, very similar to what you'd expect from a traditional lacquer finish.

We do not offer pickup and delivery, but we are proud to work with Island Wrangler to facilitate your furniture transportation needs. Island Wrangler serves the greater Charleston area including: James Island Johns/Kiawah/Seabrook Islands West Ashley Downtown Mt. Pleasant/IOP/Sullivan's Island There is an additional fee for this service, which we will work into your quote if you'd like. Let us know in the commission request form

We get asked this question a lot! And honestly, it varies widely depending on the type of piece and the wood its made from, as well as its existing finish. Mahogany, cherry, and any other red-leaning wood species usually don't lend themselves to a blonde/natural tone, but we can discuss white-washing/pickling/weathering techniques to achieve your desired look.

As with most projects, it varies! Some projects may be completed within a week, while others may take up to 6 weeks. In general, we try to commit to a 4 week turnaround time. The size of your project, cure times, creative finishes, high sheens, repairs, etc. all take time. And since we're in Charleston, humidity is always a factor that can affect these things. We ask that you have a little wiggle room so that we can return to you a piece that is as durable as it is gorgeous.
