This is a all natural material product in which there will be variations in color, grain, texture and warpage that are all characteristics of the bamboo, reeds, jutes, rattan and wood. Even though we maintain rigid quality controls standards, we can not guarantee exact color matches. These variations are natural and will be especially visible in shades with light color stains. When dealing with woven wood products, variation will occur and are considered acceptable. Overtime, the color of natural jute patterns will soften in the sun to mild, golden tone. Finishing edges of the bamboo and wicker reeds may crack after cutting and assembly due to the inherent property of natural material.
