CUSTOM ORDER INFORMATION
If you have seen something on this website or the @lignumco instagram account that you like, custom orders can be arranged. You may want a similarly designed product to specific dimensions or even send through a design of your own that you would like to see turned into a reality. Whatever the case, send through an inquiry email and we will endeavour to respond as quick as possible to discuss ideas and a timeline.
A sample of custom options are listed below along with the general order procedure and pricing breakdown. You will find that the order process is simple enough and will allow for customer input from start to finish. The pricing breakdown is also highly competitive and quite reasonable considering the product. Lignum Co. is not a profit seeking company, the philosophy is to provide unique design and quality products at a price cheaper than you would normally pay. The profit made off items has been set at the minimum rate for a buyer, while still being viable for the time put in to produce.
Elements that can be customised:
When looking at making a custom order, you can request something similar to an item already made, adapt it with your own ideas or complete come up with your own concept. Either way, send through an email, start the conversation and consider the following:
- Overall design
- Aspects of a current design
- Dimensions and proportions
- Timber requests (hardwood/softwood/mixture)
- Presence or absence of nailheads
- Quality of surfaces (raw, sanded, smooth finish)
- Quality of finish (raw/natural, polyurethane)
- Light globe type (lamps only)
- Socket with switch/no switch (lamps only)
- Chord with switch/no switch (lamps only)
- Metal pin switch on lamp (lamps only)
Order Process:
Time for an order to go through depends on the time of the year, other orders being fullfilled, wood varieties/quantities in stock and other materials that may need to be ordered. However, it is fairly safe to assumed that a product can be made within a two week time frame. Often it will be within a matter of days, though regular contact will be made to keep you posted. Below is a general order timeline:
1. Email through inquiry with a request for a particular item
2. Confirm design, dimensions, materials, and finish
3. Estimation of cost - same/similar to items in Collection
4. Crafting begins
5. Photo updates will be supplied to confirm finish
6. Item will be finished to customer request
7. Product will be ready for shipping (MELB: or pick up/delivery)
