Know before you buy

Yes, Theodore Alexander requires that this commode be installed by a licensed contractor. This ensures the included anti-tip kit is properly secured to your wall for safety, given the piece's substantial weight.
The piece is crafted from khaya wood and high-quality veneers. These materials are finished in the brand's signature Cambridge tone to highlight the natural grain and traditional aesthetic.
No, each marble top features unique natural variations in veining and color. Because it is a natural stone, you should expect slight differences in pattern compared to the marketing imagery.
