5 out of 5 starsGreat quality desk. Looks even better in the office than I'd imagined. Response on update queries were very quick even during holidays and weekends. Clearly a lot of effort is put into each build. 10/10

Delivery
Multiple pieces ordered simultaneously will require more time to build.
We are a very small team here in the workshop so illness or family emergencies can hinder our progress significantly. We ask for patience in there event of any short delay.
I'll always inform you of any delay but please understand that delays of up to a couple of weeks can, and sometimes do, happen.
Most of my pieces come with free shipping.
This is based on items going along my usual delivery route between Manchester and London.
Addresses that deviate too far from this route will incur a delivery surcharge to be discussed on order.
I do my best to personally deliver all of my furniture so as I can ensure the best care is taken with each & every piece.
If I'm unable to deliver your item all larger pieces will shipped via a trusted private courier who will blanket wrap & secure your item - this courier travels once every two weeks so this may cause a slight delay to your delivery.
Smaller items; such as window boxes, shelving and some smaller tables are shipped via TNT on a 'next day' service.
I welcome collections from my small workshop in Atherton, Lancashire.
Additional policies and FAQs
This is real wood and will act as real wood does - it will move over time, small cracks can appear, it will have knots, dents and other 'blemishes' and there may be inconsistent colour patterns within the timbers.
The timber can and will dry out if not maintained regularly with a recommended cleaner - I suggest OSMO SPRAY CLEANER or FIDDES SPRAY CLEANER a couple times a week. Simply spray and wipe!
Again, this is real wood.
All of my tables now come with a traditional breadboard end which helps keep the table flat and straight - this breadboard is designed to let the table shrink and swell with the seasons. The breadboard will remain to length and sometimes protrude from the table.
I recommend turning down the heating of any room the piece will live so as the timber can acclimatise to the new environment.
The heating should then be turned up slowly for the first 10 days.
Failure to prepare the room in this way may lead to warping, bowing or cracks in the timber ant a faster rate.
There may be differences in colour from piece to piece and from the examples shown.
This is impossible to avoid due to the nature of the materials used.
For example; an item ordered in March may be different in colour to a piece ordered in October.
I do welcome visitors to my workshop for limited periods of the year - so if you'd like to discuss a commission in person please get in touch.

Care instructions
MAINTAINING YOUR HANDMADE FURNITURE.
Your reclaimed wood is finished with a high grade & eco friendly hard wax-oil making it extremely tough.
This wax-oil takes 12 hours to dry but a couple weeks to fully 'cure' - extra care should be taken within this two week period.
For daily maintenance wipe with a damp lint-free cotton cloth.
For optimal results surfaces should be treated with OSMO SPRAY CLEANER.
If you have any questions about the continued care of your items, please don't hesitate to get in touch : hello@oldmanandmagpie.com
