Emirzian Sheraton Stand Arrived Yesterday

Duane, UPS delivered our Emirzian stand ordered through your 'Keeping Room'. Not a scuff on the box which traveled from Mark's barn in Massachusetts to northern California. The table is beautiful! It's a new experience having a benchmade piece of furniture in our home. Now I want to change out my GWC tea tables and windsor chairs! Can truly see the difference so will have to start saving for a future order. Thanks.
ps. I haven't done a thorough forum search yet on caring for the finish. It's not like the lacquered pieces I'm used too. What's your advice?

Hi Nancy,

It looks GREAT in your home! Thanks for the photo...did you study the leg turnings? If you do, you will see that each should vary slightly, because they are turned one at a time on a lathe and no two should be exact. The hallmark of a Benchmade piece.

Mark uses a lacquer topcoat over Aniline and Shellac, so care is easy. You can use any non-silicone wax or polish that you like. Silicone based polishes (like Pledge) really cause havoc with fine furniture, so just read the label before you apply anything to it. My favorite is OZ polish, that's all I use around the store.


Thanks for your order! Glad it met your expectations and arrived safe and sound.
