Woven | Handcrafted Wallcoverings
Most of our woven wallcoverings are made of natural fibers, and/or many are handcrafted. Natural variations are to be expected. Colors may vary between dye lots or within the same dye lot itself. Because cuttings of current stock are available upon request, we cannot assume responsibility for texture or dye lot variations on orders shipped without a CFA request. Woven natural fiber wallcoverings do not have a side match and in some instances each panel is visible when installed. Lead times for woven wallcoverings can range from in stock and ready to ship to up to fourteen weeks. All woven wallcoverings are F.O.B. Inglewood, California.
Handcrafted wallcoverings from Nadine Weatherstone, Bozena and Fameed Khalique are made to order and require a 50% deposit. A working sample to initiate the order for any Nadine Weatherstone wallcovering order. Nadine Weatherstone wallcovering's lead time is approximately 6-8 weeks and are F.O.B. Oregon. Bozena wallcovering's lead time is approximately 4-6 weeks and are F.O.B. Illinois. Fameed Khalique wallcovering's lead time is approximately 4-6 weeks and are F.O.B. London. Since these wallcoverings are made to order it is extremely important that the required amount is ordered correctly because any needed additional wallcovering that would be necessary to complete the installation, will not match in most cases. We recommend that a professional wallcovering installer measure to determine the correct amount of wallcovering to order.
