From lead times and natural stone variations to custom orders and material samples, we have answered twelve of the questions we are asked most often about un’common furniture.
1. How long will I have to wait for my furniture?
The standard lead time is 5-7 weeks – but it's worth the wait. Each piece is made by experienced craftspeople and specialist workshops we work with closely, rather than on an anonymous production line.
2. Can every piece of furniture differ from those shown in the photos?
Yes. Natural stone is never repeated twice – differences in veining or shade are not a defect, but proof that it is a genuine material. It's also a kind of adventure – discovering a unique piece of nature in your own home.
3. Why is stone the heart of your workshop?
Marble and travertine age gracefully – they don't wear out, but rather gain character and patina over time. For us, it's the most honest material there is, which is why it became the heart of our workshop. Wood naturally complements it.
4. Who designs your furniture?
Behind every form stands a single vision. All furniture is designed by Gosia Korycka – architect and co-founder of Un'common. This is why our aesthetic is so consistent: we follow our own aesthetic, we don't chase trends.
5. What influences the price of your furniture?
Behind every piece stands a craftsman, not a production line. Manual stone and wood processing requires time and precision, and above all, valuable experience, which affects both the price and how long the furniture will serve you. In our designs, we also use selected materials of the highest quality and aesthetics.
6. Where does the stone you use come from?
Through our Italian partners, we import it from the best global deposits, including Italy, Spain, and Brazil. The quality of the material is the foundation upon which we build the aesthetics of our furniture.
7. Can I order custom-sized furniture?
Yes, we fulfill individual orders. If you have a specific project in mind, write to us – we will be happy to help you realize it. WRITE TO US
8. Where did the name Un'common come from?
We owe it to Maciek. We wanted a name that immediately conveyed who we are – uncompromising in our approach to form and material. Un'common is our declaration and promise: a unique approach to design, form beyond fleeting trends.
9. Can I see a material sample before purchasing?
Yes – we offer stone, wood, and veneer samples, so you can assess the color and texture before deciding to purchase a larger piece of furniture. ORDER SAMPLES HERE
10. Why do horses often appear in your communication?
Horses have always been important to us personally. Additionally, our workshop in Łódź is located in a former city stable, a unique place that naturally became part of our history.
11. Which piece of furniture is your favorite?
It's a bit like choosing a favorite child - impossible. But if we had to pick, recently it would probably be the BLOCK Sideboard, and from earlier collections, we love the PAVO chest of drawers and the TURI pillar.
12. How do you run a family business?
For us, it just works ;)
