How will I receive my refund?

Refunds are issued in the original form of payment. Please note that a refund issued to your credit or debit card may take up to two weeks to be acknowledged by your financial institution.

Will you repair my item, or replace it?

Repair is always our preferred course of action. However, if after evaluating your item it is deemed not repairable, you may need to replace your product. Repairs are made to preserve the strength and integrity of the product. Based on the amount of labor involved, some repairs may incur a charge. You will be notified if this is the case prior to any work being done on your item. If your damaged product requires replacement, please be advised we cannot also return your original product to you.

Where are your products made?

All assembly and shipping occurs within our workshop in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. 80% of all materials and components are sourced within Pennsylvania and New York City. We hand craft many of our products starting the day after the order is processed. Expect lead time to vary on where we are in the production schedule.
