Frequently Asked Questions
What should I inspect when buying a vintage tub chair?
Examine the frame stability, joint tightness, wood finish condition, and spring suspension integrity. Original mid-century frames rely on solid hardwoods like teak, rosewood, oak, or walnut, which hold up significantly better over time than modern particleboard reproductions.
How do I maintain and clean vintage wool and leather upholstery?
Vacuum woven fabrics weekly using a soft brush attachment to remove dust particles. For leather upholstery, apply a gentle conditioner every six months to prevent drying, and clean spills immediately using a damp microfiber cloth.
Do you offer trade discounts for interior designers?
Yes, we operate a dedicated trade program offering special pricing, pre-order access for incoming European shipping containers, and custom hold options for verified design professionals.
How often do you receive new inventory shipments from Europe?
We coordinate direct European buying trips multiple times each year, bringing in fresh container shipments of vintage Danish, Swedish, Italian, and European furniture every few months.
What are your delivery options for nationwide buyers?
We partner with specialized white-glove freight carriers to safely assemble and transport vintage items inside your home anywhere across the contiguous United States.
