Munggur wood is a natural timber, and as such, it is a 'living' material.

Munggur wood products will respond to temperature and humidity variations by expanding and contracting. Movements and cracks may occur as the timber adjusts – this is not a fault but a natural occurrence within the fibres of a natural product.

The natural moisture content of solid munggur items is high. Although our products are kiln-dried for an extensive period, the design of this particular product embraces a thickness in timber that retains moisture at its core. During transport, moisture may surface and leave water blemishes. While we have a process to further enhance our munggur wood pieces after receiving them at our warehouse, the moisture content of munggur wood can still fluctuate, and excess moisture may resurface. Water blemishes are to be expected and are part of the inherent characteristics of solid munggur wood.

Additionally, some pieces may exhibit black stains, which are a natural occurrence. These marks are not faults but a result of the wood's interaction with its environment. The stains enhance the unique character of each piece, making it one-of-a-kind.

As with any natural material, existing fluids and moisture can leech over time, which may cause stains on some surfaces. We do not recommend placing this natural timber piece directly onto carpets or rugs. Moisture will generally seep through the ends of the timber. If placing it on carpets or rugs, markings may be avoided by using a protective liner, such as thick plastic.

Many of our timber ranges feature characterful woods with naturally occurring knots and a variety of colours. Grain and knot variations in the wood are characteristics of timber, not defects.

No two pieces of munggur timber are alike, and customers should expect variance in tone, veins, grain pattern, leaching, cracking, knots, and black stains.

None of the above is considered a fault; we embrace these elements as the natural characteristics and beauty of timber furniture.

Uniqwa does not offer refunds, replacements, or exchanges based on the natural look of the timber as described. These unique aspects are an accepted part of purchasing Uniqwa furniture.

Humidity causes mould to grow. Limited airflow and moisture create a microclimate for mould to develop. In some cases, mould will begin growing on furniture, clothing and other contents within the home.
In instances when this occurs, it is not an inherent fault of the furniture, clothing and other contents; rather, humidity or dampness in the air can supply enough moisture for mould growth on any surface. Mould can occur anywhere, and humid climates provide the optimal conditions for the fungi to grow and thrive on any surface.

Every Uniqwa piece has a story…

Our collections are mostly individually hand-made pieces. As most of our products are made from natural materials, texture, colour, and pattern may vary from piece to piece. Reclaimed timbers, naturally weathered materials and off-cuts otherwise discarded are frequently part of Uniqwa design features.

Natural splitting, cracking, and loss of natural oils may occur and form part of the characteristics and beauty of Uniqwa products. These are not viewed as imperfections or faults but as part of timber's natural life and beauty.

We believe the result of using natural materials and hand-crafted elements is a testament to the unique qualities found in materials originating from nature.

As every monitor displays different colour tones, the colour of pictures on our website and social media cannot be taken as a true colour indication of the actual products. Some product tones may appear to vary from catalogue or website images.
