Maintenance advice for the furniture
A piece of furniture in solid wood can last several centuries, even though "it lives", moving and changing over time. It is important to pay attention to its "conditions of life” .
Wood is sensitive to hygrometric conditions, temperature, sunlight and environmental conditions in general. A sudden change in the rate of humidity may lift panels, shatter varnish and make cracks appear, swell doors or the piece of furniture as a whole, etc. The ideal combination is a temperature around 21°C and a rate of humidity of 40 %. If the air is too humid, the wood will absorb the house’s excess humidity. It is also imperative to avoid placing the piece directly in front of heat sources (radiators, fireplaces, etc.) or exposing it to direct sunlight.
Make sure that you place the piece perfectly horizontally. This is the first condition to ensure that the doors and drawers will open and close correctly. Always close doors and drawers correctly to avoid any risk of warping. It is recommended to fix high pieces of furniture to the wall to avoid movements and ensure better stability.
Furniture should be dusted regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Immediately wipe away any liquid spilt on a piece. Do not use products or sprays based on silicons, waxes, acetone, ammonia, oil or any other elements which could attack the wood and its coatings. If necessary, call a professional.
Leather only needs a light touch of nourishing cream if the air is too dry. Semi-precious stones and mother of pearl should be washed in slightly soapy water with a soft cloth. Dry carefully afterwards. Never use abrasives.
If in doubt, don’t hesitate to contact us.
We buy back our pieces at the price you bought them, for life.
One of the great differences between exceptional artistic furniture like that of "Manufacture de Luxe" and mass-produced furniture (however expensive it may be), is that the former gain value with time while the latter lose value every year.
That is why we are without doubt the only ones to be able to offer a guarantee as exceptional as our products: that we will, if you wish, buy back your furniture signed "Manufacture de Luxe" at the same price you paid for it. This is a lifetime guarantee.

Because we are responsible for the world we live in...
At "Manufacture de Luxe" we believe that quality should not only apply to the products we offer. It should also be the object of a global and permanent approach. Quality in human relations, quality in commercial relations, and quality of work. When you dare to be an exceptional company you have to prove it every day.
"Manufacture de Luxe" has basic principles of respect and responsibility.
1/ Respect for the clients
A simple and honest approach towards our clients consisting of offering high quality products under the best possible conditions of sale. A relationship based on trust and integrity.
2/ Respect for suppliers
We select competent suppliers who also have an overall work ethic. We give preference to enterprises which are close, crafts-based and human, collaborating with us to preserve and maintain the greatest levels of savoir-faire.
3/ Respect for our own workers
If everybody does what they should, work becomes a pleasure for all.
"Manufacture de Luxe" is conscious of its environmental responsibilities in relation to each of these choices.
4/ Origin of controlled essences
The essences used in the manufacture of our furniture are always of the highest quality. We make sure that they come only from controlled and well-managed forests. Most of the essences that we use are of French or European origin and are subject to very strict regulations. We use very little exotic wood, but when some rare essence is indispensable, we always turn to suppliers who guarantee verifiable sourcing. Moreover, once again, wood coming from the closest forests are always preferred, so as to minimise unnecessary transportation.
5/ Harmlessness of the manufactured furniture
Furniture signed "Manufacture de Luxe" is almost entirely manufactured in solid wood. No chipboard, no melamine, no MDF: simply because these panels are made with urea-formol glues, so that they will release formaldehyde vapours over the years without this being noticeable. It is also scandalous that most furniture today, even so-called "top of the range" pieces, uses products whose toxicity is well known and which will one day end up being banned. The few panels we use are either made with natural binders like lignite, or are certified plywoods to norm E1, which means they have insignificant urea-formol content. Certain elements, such as doors for example, are made according to the method called ‘three cross ply’, which assures better stability. The glues used are similarly inoffensive. Generally speaking, the glues that we use are either natural or without negative effects on the health.
On the other hand, the finishing products we use (pigments, varnishes, paint) are guaranteed as applied without solvents, using only water. In general, preference is given to ‘responsible’ products whose composition presents no known risks. We make constant efforts to use only healthy and ‘responsible’ products, but, quite frankly, in spite of these efforts we must recognise that it is impossible today to be absolutely sure about all the elements. We can simply guarantee that we do our best to make healthy and "responsible" furniture down to the smallest detail.
And the soul of these rare objects should match your own...
CUSTOMIZATION
Each piece may be realised in natural wood tint, or with the colour of leather or fabric you select. We can also adapt the models we present to dimensions that suit you, so that they are a perfect fit with the requirements of your interior.
