AM I ABLE TO VISIT THE LA LUNE COLLECTION FACTORY AND/OR SHOWROOM IN MILWAUKEE? WHAT ARE YOUR SHOWROOM HOURS?

We are always happy to welcome visitors to our beautiful factory! All visits, however, need to be scheduled "by appointment only" - please contact us to schedule your visit.

CAN LA LUNE FURNITURE BE USED OUTDOORS?

La Lune Collection seating and tables may be used outdoors but only as described below. At check-out you will be asked to specify if the furniture will be used "indoors", “outdoors under cover” (under a roofed area) , or “completely outdoors”.  If seating is specified for any type of outdoor use, then the seat cushions will be made with our outdoor grade fabric and fill, and the deck below the seat cushion will be made of wood spindles. Tables specified for outdoor use will have cedar plank tops. The natural finish on bark (N) and the premium finishes on bark (P) may be used “outdoors under cover” but not recommended for “completely outdoors”.  The peeled bark finishes may be used in any outdoor installation, unless otherwise noted.  All orders specified for “completely outdoors” will be made with peeled bark cedar.  All cedar furniture will have some checking and cracking, however, this is a natural characteristic of cedar and will not affect the structural integrity of the furniture. When used outdoors, the furniture should be resealed at least once per year with a clear exterior varnish and should be stored indoors during the winter months. Please contact us with any questions regarding outdoor use and maintenance.   

CAN LA LUNE FURNITURE BE USED IN COMMERCIAL INSTALLATIONS? 

The entire La Lune Collection line is designed and constructed to withstand heavy commercial use. La Lune Collection has stood the test of time for over 30 years in the most demanding installations including restaurants, hotels, casinos, coffee shops, theme parks, shopping malls, hospitals, and retail stores. See Commercial Section.  Please contact us regarding contract pricing, delivery time, custom designs, and any other commercial questions. See Commercial Installations list

IS LA LUNE FURNITURE ECO-FRIENDLY?

Since our company’s inception in 1979, before eco-friendly became fashionable, we have been concerned about our environment and particularly about deforestation by the lumber and furniture industries. La Lune Collection may be one of the most eco-friendly furniture lines in the world - it's true!  Here are the Top Ten Reasons why: See Eco-friendly.

COULD I ORDER AN ITEM WITH A DIFFERENT FABRIC THAN WHAT IS AVAILABLE ONLINE?

In addition to the 20 La Lune Collection fabrics available online, you may also select and send us your own fabrics (COM).  For more information, see the Customer's Own Material section of the Basics Tab on each product page.  COM orders are priced the same as orders in La Lune Collection fabrics.

You may also select any of the fabrics from the Sunbrella indoor/outdoor upholstery line at a surcharge. If you wish to specify a Sunbrella fabric, simply visit the Sunbrella fabrics website and let us know your selection(s).  We will individually quote the cost of your order made using the Sunbrella fabrics of your choice. See Sunbrella fabrics.

WHAT IF MY PRODUCT ARRIVES DAMAGED?

Claims for loss or damage are valid only when La Lune is notified within five (5) days from the delivery date.

WHAT IS YOUR WARRANTY?
