Products & Materials
Are your products handmade?

Most of our collections are handmade or produced in small batches by skilled artisans. Small variations in texture, color, dimensions and finish are part of the beauty and character of handcrafted pieces.

Will my product look exactly like the pictures?

Natural materials such as marble, onyx, wood, wool and handmade finishes are unique. Variations in veining, texture and tone are natural and make every piece one of a kind.

Why are some products different in color or texture?

Natural and handmade materials respond differently to light, seasons and traditional production techniques. These subtle differences are part of the character and beauty of handcrafted design.

Are your products made from natural materials?

Many of our collections are made using natural materials including wool, marble, onyx, brass, wood, clay and natural finishes selected for their timeless character and durability.

Bathroom Questions
Can your products be legally installed in European bathrooms?

Yes. Many of our products can be installed in European bathrooms when installed according to local building regulations and standards. We always recommend installation by a certified professional.

Do your sinks fit standard European drains?

Yes. Our sinks are designed to work with standard European plumbing dimensions in most installations. If a product requires specific fittings this will be clearly stated.

Do your sinks include overflow?

Some models include overflow and some do not. Please check individual product specifications before purchasing.

Can I use your sinks with wall-mounted or countertop taps?

Yes. Depending on the model, our sinks can work with both countertop and wall-mounted tap solutions.

Are stone and marble sinks treated?

Many of our sinks are sealed for everyday use. Natural stone still requires regular care and maintenance to preserve its appearance over time.

Can natural stone change over time?

Natural stone develops character through use. Small changes in surface appearance are normal and part of the beauty of living materials.

Rugs & Textiles
Do wool rugs shed?

Natural wool rugs can shed slightly during the first months of use. This is completely normal and decreases over time.

Will handmade rugs vary slightly in size?

Yes. Traditional handwoven and handmade rugs may vary slightly in size and shape.

Are your rugs suitable for underfloor heating?

Yes. Most wool rugs work well with underfloor heating.

How should I clean my rug?

Vacuum regularly without using rotating brush settings. For stains, blot gently rather than rubbing. Professional cleaning is recommended when needed.
