Changes to your order

Due to the short lead time of De La Espada furniture, the factory begins production shortly after orders are placed. Therefore we are only able to change your order if manufacturing has not already started. If you purchased directly from De La Espada contact the office closest to you. If your order was placed through one of our authorised dealers, please contact customer services at the store from which you purchased.
