VERMONT & ALBANY VENEERS: AN UPDATE
 
 
Moulding: Vermont Oak L1904. Mount: Daler D8606 Fellstone Texture. Image: ‘Brian’ by Georgina McMaster edinburgharts.com
Our long-standing UK manufacturer of the popular Vermont veneers range rather suddenly stopped production of frame mouldings earlier this summer. The most popular Oak veneer is now being made for us in Italy. It’s in stock and we’re really pleased with the results - we know you’ll like it too. Please take a look online where you’ll see stock levels clearly displayed before you order.

A combination of lower volumes and demanding quality requirements for Walnut veneer made finding an alternative supplier a little more challenging. So we’ve decided to add a Walnut veneer to our other popular, high quality Veneer range – Albany.

We’ve also taken the opportunity to add a new finish to Albany – an unfinished wood composite veneer in Denim Black. It looks terrific! These new finishes in the Albany range are now available online.

We couldn’t source a replacement for Wenge, so this finish will be deleted when stocks run out. You can check the current stock situation at lionpic.co.uk.
 
PRICE INCREASES
 
 
 
Whenever possible we only change moulding prices once a year, when our new catalogue is launched in September. We do this because we know that no-one likes surprises! If you want to be prepared we can send all your current pricing information, with a comparison showing what your prices will be from 1st September 2018. Speak to our sales team on +44(0)121 773 1230 or email archana@lionpic.co.uk
DID YOU KNOW.....?
We can send details of mouldings you’ve ordered over the last couple of years, including current prices, what’s on rundown for deletion and what’s already deleted.
