Do I need an account to place an order?
No. You may complete your purchase as a guest without creating an account. Creating an account can make it easier to review order information and manage your details for future purchases.
Can I change or cancel my order?
If you need to change or cancel an order, please contact us as soon as possible. Once an order has entered processing, production, or shipment, we may not be able to modify or cancel it. Custom, made-to-order, and special-order products may be subject to additional restrictions.
Can I order product samples or swatches?
Samples or swatches may be available for select products and materials. If you would like to review a finish, fabric, or material before purchasing, please contact our customer service team to confirm availability.
Are product colors exactly the same as they appear online?
We make every effort to represent colors, materials, and finishes as accurately as possible. However, variations may occur due to screen settings, lighting conditions, natural materials, and manufacturing processes. Wood, stone, marble, leather, and other natural materials may naturally vary in color, grain, texture, veining, and pattern.
How do I make sure my furniture will fit?
Please review the dimensions on the product page and measure your entryways, hallways, elevators, staircases, and intended placement area before ordering. Packaged dimensions may be larger than the listed product dimensions. If delivery cannot be completed because of insufficient access or clearance, additional delivery, return, or storage fees may apply.
Are all Carrowen products available online?
Most of our products and custom options are available online, though not every piece is displayed. We invite you to connect with a Design Consultant—available six days a week at +1(888)884-7858. Our team will be happy to provide detailed information, including premium fabric and finish options, and help you explore our one-of-a-kind furniture collections.
Are natural variations considered defects?
No. Natural variations in wood grain, knots, stone veining, texture, pattern, and color are inherent characteristics of natural materials and are not considered manufacturing defects.

What happens if I miss my scheduled delivery?
If you miss your scheduled delivery appointment, the carrier will charge additional redelivery or storage fees.
If you need assistance coordinating your delivery, please contact support@carrowen.com as early as possible.
My residence won’t be ready for weeks. If I place my order, can you hold my items at your warehouse?
Merchandise in our warehouse cannot be held more than 60 days. After 60 days, full payment for the merchandise is required and delivery must be scheduled for your order. If you are unable to accept delivery beyond 60 days of your merchandise being fully committed in our warehouse, your order must be paid in full and cannot be returned, refused, canceled or exchanged.
Can I pick up my order from a local warehouse?
Most items ordered through our website or by phone are not available for local warehouse pickup.
Will my merchandise be assembled at the time of delivery?
Furniture, large décor items, uniquely shaped pieces, and fragile products that cannot be shipped via standard parcel services are typically shipped fully assembled. In some cases, minor components may be packaged separately for protection and can be easily installed by the customer or handled through our White Glove Delivery Service.
With White Glove Delivery, our professionally trained team will unpack, inspect, and assemble the main components of your furniture, then place the item in the room of your choice. All packaging materials and debris will be removed upon completion.
Please note:
– Our delivery team is not permitted to move or dispose of your existing furniture or personal belongings.
– Items such as lighting, mirrors, and wall art will not be unboxed, assembled, or installed.
– Our team is not authorized to install electrical fixtures or wall-mounted items.
– Orders shipped via UPS, FedEx, or curbside delivery do not include assembly or in-home setup.
Will I receive all of the items on my order at the same time?
Depending on the items purchased and the available delivery methods for each, your order may arrive in multiple shipments.
For items delivered via our White Glove Delivery Service, if any pieces are delayed, we will schedule delivery once all items are available and ready to ship. If you prefer to split a deferred order into multiple shipments, additional delivery fees will apply.

Can I cancel or modify my order?
Orders may be canceled or modified free of charge within 48 hours of placement.
After 48 hours, changes or cancellations may still be requested prior to shipment; however, a 5% bank processing fee may apply.
Once the order has entered the final-mile delivery stage, it can no longer be canceled or modified.
What If My Item Looks Different from What I Saw Online?
Many of our pieces are crafted from natural materials and finished by hand, making each item uniquely individual. Subtle variations in texture, grain, color, and finish—such as organic markings, light distressing, or tonal differences—are inherent characteristics of these materials and are not considered defects.
We make every effort to display product colors and details as accurately as possible. However, variations may occur due to lighting conditions, photography, and individual screen settings.
Do you offer discounts for bulk or trade orders?
Yes, we offer preferred pricing for bulk purchases, commercial projects, and trade professionals.
For volume orders or to inquire about a trade account, please contact us at support@carrowen.com. Our team will be happy to assist with tailored solutions for your project.

Please contact support@carrowen.com as soon as possible if you need to request a change.
Once an order has entered processing, production, packing, or shipment, changes may no longer be possible.
