Our furniture is hand-made and in many cases quite soft so keep in mind dimensions may vary by an inch or two. Prefer a custom size? Contact us.
Our products undergo rigorous testing by trusted third-party labs and meet or exceed industry safety requirements.
Our gliders and swivels exceed all stringent tipping tests, but they're still heavy. Please take care while using them, and place them on a flat, even surface to ensure stability and prevent tip hazards.
Swivels and gliders move by design, but please swivel and glide sensibly, and monitor your children to ensure they don’t touch or play with the mechanisms at the base of the chairs.
Our entire fabric catalogue consists of the safest materials for your children—all-natural or recycled fabrics—nothing toxic, no flame-retardants, and nothing coated with chemicals or PFAS.
All our materials meet or exceed stringent industry chemical and VOC emissions standards.
Care
For detailed instructions on spot cleaning, dry cleaning, and machine washing, check out our post, “Cleaning your slipcover.”
Spills & Stains
Tread carefully—treatment can vary by fabric, color, and stain type.
Dry Cleaning & Machine Washing
Natural and recycled fabrics: We strongly recommend dry cleaning for regular laundering and stain removal. Machine washing is possible with a bit of mindful care.
Recycled Faux Fur: Machine wash per the instructions in our detailed care post and air-dry. Do not dry-clean or tumble-dry.
Upkeep & Maintenance
Natural and recycled fabrics: Vacuum regularly (with an upholstery attachment if you have one).
Recycled Faux Fur: Gently brush the fabric fibers with a soft-bristle brush (or your hand) in the direction of the fur.
You can read more about day-to-day maintenance in our post, “Getting to know your Sixpenny.”
Please note that consistent exposure to direct sunlight can lead to fading or discoloration. You can read more about fabric colorfastness in our post, “Fabric fading 101.”

Esmé's seat cushion contains three layers: your choice of loose fill (Feather Down or Poly Fill) at the top and bottom, and a “support layer” of high-density foam sandwiched between the fill.
Seat Cushions: 60% foam, 40% loose fill
Back Cushions: 100% loose fill
Our lofty Feather Down is ethically sourced, and our vegan Poly Fill is designed to mimic the familiar fluff of feathers. We mix a small percentage of vegan poly fiber into the Feather Down cushions for a bit of spring.
As a rule, the fluffier the cushion, the more upkeep it will require. Our cushions are exceptionally soft, and much of the fill is loose, so periodic fluffing will go a long way.
You can read more about our cushions in Materials & Construction or in our post, “Inside scoop: Feather Down vs Poly Fill.”
