Frequently Asked Questions:
Do you sell
direct to the public?
No, we sell wholesale
to the trade only.
Can I see your products
in person without going to a trade show?
Yes. We have permanent showrooms in Atlanta and Dallas that are open M-F during
regular business hours. Click

map pins for Atlanta and Dallas details.
How will my order be shipped?
Your order will be shipped in the
most cost effective manner available. Smaller items will be shipped via UPS.
Larger items will be shipped by truck line (freight shipping). All items that
are shipped by truck line are indicated as such on the Dimensions tab which
is to the left of the Descriptions tab on each product listing.
Is shipping by truck
line expensive?
Not neccessarily.
Shipping by truck line is
the easiest way to move large and bulky items quickly
and efficiently. We utilize the trucks of the largest carriers in the US including
ABF, Yellow Freight, Roadway, UPS and more. Many of our large planter
sets are also available individually but when you include shipping costs,
you can get the complete set of 4 or 5 at a similar price as 1 or 2
individual planters.
Do I need to have a business
office for receiving truck line shipments?
No. We can ship large items to residential locations. To avoid extra charges
you will need to provide your own manpower for unloading.
Can I pick up my order
from your warehouse to avoid shipping charges?
Yes. Our Atlanta warehouse is open Monday through Friday, 8am to 4:30pm EDT.
Where are your products
made?
Mainly in China and Vietnam. The owner makes trips twice a year to Asia to select
products
and check on the status of our factories. At
our
Atlanta
location
the
lamps
are
assembled
and the display tables and etegeres are made in our metal shop.
