Know before you buy
The dimensions vary because the upholstery materials require different frame construction techniques to ensure proper tension and support. The fabric version is slightly larger at 20" x 15" x 15", while the leather version is more compact at 16" x 14" x 13".
No, every piece is unique. Because the footstool is handcrafted from natural hickory saplings, you should expect variations in the wood's grain, knots, and natural curvature, which are hallmarks of authentic rustic furniture.
The hickory wood undergoes a steaming process during construction. This not only makes the wood pliable enough to be bent into its signature shape but also effectively eliminates any potential for insect activity.
Yes, hickory is an environmentally friendly choice. The saplings used for this furniture grow back rapidly, making them a renewable resource that supports sustainable harvesting practices.
The semi-gloss varnish provides a protective layer that is easy to maintain. Simply wipe the wood down with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust, and avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that could damage the finish.
