What does the comparison price represent?
It is the verified KOUBOO retail reference for the selected variant, not a former JapandiWoven selling price. This original design concept is priced US$20 below that reference.
Are the image and specifications final?
No. This AI concept and proposed reference dimensions/materials need workshop sample approval. Stock, production and delivery are not confirmed.
Is every piece handmade?
Yes. Each piece is hand-woven by artisan households in Guangxi, China, so small variations in tone and weave are normal and expected.
How do I care for it at home?
Dust regularly with a dry brush or cloth, wipe with a lightly damp cloth when needed, and let it air-dry away from radiators and direct sun.
How long does delivery take?
In-stock pieces usually ship within 3-5 business days, with standard delivery following after dispatch.
Can I return it if it does not suit my space?
Yes. Unused pieces in original condition can be returned within the stated returns window — just contact the studio first.
Are the materials natural and sustainable?
Yes. We weave with rattan, bamboo and seagrass on renewable harvest cycles, and ship in zero-plastic, compostable packaging.
