FAQ
Are all of the pieces vintage and previously used?
Most of our pieces are vintage and/or used. We have some contemporary pieces that are from the last 20 years as well. Some pieces are unused and in their original boxes while others have a bit more wear and tear showing. Information about the specific items is written in their descriptions, along with their dimensions and descriptions.
Are the items on Étajèr restored or refurbished?
Most pieces have undergone cleaning and shining, some of our vintage items, mainly furniture, may have undergone minor restoration to preserve their beauty and function, however, we maintain the integrity of the original design and materials, ensuring that each piece remains true to its vintage roots. Restoration is always done with care, using techniques that respect the item's history.
How do I care for my vintage piece?
Caring for vintage items varies depending on the material and design, but generally, it is best to avoid direct sunlight, moisture, and extreme temperature fluctuations. For most tableware or kitchen pieces we'd recommend avoiding washing in dishwasher or using rough chemicals, for wood furniture, regular dusting and occasional polishing with a gentle product can help maintain its luster. For textiles, we recommend dry cleaning or spot cleaning to preserve the fabric.
