Please check our link page for dealers in your area. If you cannot locate a dealer please contact us for a direct order.
How to order:
We like to keep in close communication with our customers so we can fulfill your wishes. We will require you to complete our order record to confirm the order. Standard Orders refer to models in stock or built as described in our current brochure. We want to fulfill the artist’s every wish, so we offer Custom Orders for those who want it made in accordance with their own specifications. We do offer a wide variety of wood and hardware choices. Some can be ordered as option for our standard models, but many have to be made as custom orders. Please contact us and we will be happy to discuss this.
To finalize the order we require a 50% material deposit for standard orders, and a non-refundable 50% deposit for custom orders.
