Furniture:
Our timber furniture styles are made using a range of materials, but mostly Sungkai and Teak wood. Sungkai is a tropical timber commonly used in Indonesia. It has a beautiful 'blonde' colour and is used in our Seville and Coco Collections. Both Sungkai and Teak are used for its strength and long lasting durability. Both timbers are able to be used indoors and outdoors however like most natural materials they will naturally discolour over time.
Our rattan products are not to be used outside. If they must be outside (for eg. Hanging Chairs) then they must be undercover. Rattan can last longer in the warmer climates like NSW/QLD, however due harsher climates in VIC/TAS, they can wether quickly outdoors. Rattan also discolours naturally. Most of our products have a thin coating that protects the longevity of the material.
Lighting:
Our lighting all come as pendant only and we do not supply the electrical lighting component in our lights. We suggest to purchase these from Bunnings, IKEA or lighting specialist stores to get the right one for the type of house/roof height etc. The electrical components come in a range of colours and lengths to suit the customers needs. Our lighting frames are constructed by metal and have a universal size to fit a light bulb.
Again, due to the nature of rattan we don't suggest these styles to be used outside due to weather conditions. However, they can be used undercover.
Pots & Ceramics:
Our handmade pots are a decorative styling pot only. These are not to be used outside or with soil or water. Our pots are handmade with natural Terracotta and most styles have been hand painted white. Due to being handmade, measurements also differ slightly with each piece.
Vintage Moroccan Rugs:
Our Moroccan rugs are 100% authentic vintage rugs from Marrakech. We hand select each style, which are all unique and one-off styles. Due to the vintage nature, our rugs have flaws, fading and 'perfect imperfections'. We believe this adds character and charm!
We suggest cleaning our Moroccan Rugs thoroughly with a vacuum prior to washing to ensure you get most dirt out of it first. You will then need to hang the rug up outside on a ladder or a strong clothes line (be careful as the rug will become extremely heavy once wet, so ensure you have a sturdy hanging area) Then you can use either a power washer or a garden hose on strong spray and wet the rug in a downwards motion so the dirt runs off the rug, do this both sides. You can use a soap if you wish, however we cant guarantee the colours will not run. Use as natural as possible soap spray and either scrub with a brush and/or power hose off. Let your rug dry outside in the sunshine for 12-24hours or if you wish to speed the drying time, you can roll up on a flat surface to drain excess water and then hang back up to dry naturally.
Decor:
Each decor item will have product information listed on our website. For key styles, please see below information.
Our mirrors are hand crafted using rattan. As per our rattan furniture, we advised indoor use only and natural colouring may occur.
Our brass styles are 100% heavy, non rusting, brass. Some may experience natural discolouring. Our brass wall hooks come with a screw to be able to fit each individual brass style.
Our Clam Shells are resin, not a real shell. We approach this as a 'vegan' solution to protecting our reefs and marine life.
Cushions:
All our BSC cushions come with an insert. Some styles these are removable and covers can be cleaned, and some styles non removable (eg. Paloma Floor Cushions).
Cleaning and maintaining of our cushions is spot clean only with warm water. Do not machine wash natural fibres (Pero Seagrass Cushions) or naturally dyed fabrics (Moroccan Sabra Cushions) as the threads will seperate or colours will run. Due to the handmade nature of our cushions, sizes are as close to as possible.
