I am absolutely delighted with my footstool. The quality, craftsmanship, and attention to detail are outstanding, and it is clear that great care has gone into its construction. Although there was a waiting period (bespoke item) it was more than worth it. The finished product exceeded my expectations and has become a beautiful addition to my home. The service throughout was excellent, and communication was always friendly and professional. It is refreshing to find a business that takes such pride in both its products and customer service. I would not hesitate to recommend them and wish the business every continued success for the future. Thank you for creating such a lovely piece.

Lots of selection and easy to order. There was a delay due to lack of tartan material, which is fine but I had to ask the question. This was answered promptly but would suggest that company could inform customer.
