In about 4–5 weeks, your one-of-a-kind neon will be glowing its way to you, ready to hang and dazzle.

LED neon signs stay cool to the touch and are super energy-efficient—they use about 80% less power than traditional glass neon. Perfect for all-day use without spiking your electric bill.

Gas neon signs, on the other hand, do use more electricity and can get warm after a while. That’s the trade-off for that classic retro glow. Still safe, but not as eco-friendly as LEDs.

We’ve been in the neon business 11 years, so if you're unsure which suits your space, contact us and we’ll guide you right.

It really depends on your neon vibe! But here’s the lowdown:

• Pink – Popular neon for bedrooms and selfies. Warm, inviting, and playful.
• Blue – Calming and cool, great for bars or chill zones.
• Red – Bold and classic. Perfect for impact and vintage feels.
• Green – Fresh and modern. Works well in plants capes and edgy designs.
• White – Clean and versatile. Goes with everything.
• Yellow/Orange – Warm and energetic. Great for food spots and creative spaces.
• If you're not sure, go with pink or white—they’re our bestsellers for a reason.

Yep – couldn’t be easier. All Smithers neon signs come ready to plug in and glow. Wall or shelf-mountable with built-in hooks or fixings (depending on the design), or simply stand them up if they’re in an acrylic box. No electrician needed – just plug, switch on, and let the neon do the talking.

The Michelin Man, also known as Bibendum, is white because he was created in the late 1800s, back when car tyres were actually light grey or white—not black as we see today.

Originally, tyres were made from natural rubber, which has a pale, milky color. It wasn't until around 1917 that manufacturers began adding carbon black to rubber. This not only turned the tyres black but also greatly improved their durability and performance.

Since the Michelin Man was introduced in 1898, he kept his original white appearance, which by then had become iconic and recognizable. Despite tyres changing color, Bibendum stayed true to his roots—and today, that distinctive white look is part of what makes him so legendary and instantly identifiable.

The Ford sign isn’t just a logo—it’s a symbol of American innovation, grit, and automotive history. Dating back to 1903, the iconic blue oval represents one of the world’s first mass-produced car brands and the spirit of freedom that comes with the open road.

Why should you buy one?
Because it’s more than décor—it’s a conversation starter. Whether you’re a car enthusiast, love vintage Americana, or just want to add some industrial flair to your space, a Ford sign brings bold style and nostalgic charm. Hang it in your garage, office, man cave, or bar—it instantly sets the tone.

Plus, if it’s one of our ford motor signage at Smithers, you know it’s got character.

Hi Daniel,

Thank you for reaching out, and I’m thrilled to hear you’re enjoying the Visage Vintage Dinner Table—it’s one of our favorites too!

We definitely have care instructions to help keep it looking as stunning as the day it was made. Here’s how to maintain that pristine finish:

1. Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the surface. Avoid harsh chemicals—mild soap and water work best.

2. Protection: To protect the clear coat, use coasters for hot drinks and placemats for dining. Avoid placing sharp or heavy objects directly on the surface.

3. Polishing: For an extra shine, a furniture-grade polish can be applied occasionally.

4. Avoid Excess Moisture: Keep it dry, especially around the edges. If spills happen, wipe them up immediately.

Thanks again for appreciating the craftsmanship, and don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any more questions.

Cheers,

Smithers 

Our wooden alphabet letters are handcrafted from reclaimed boat wood sourced from Indonesia. After spending years braving the elements at sea, these strong and weather-resistant letters are perfect for outdoor displays. Ideal for business signage, weddings, and personalized messages, they bring a touch of rustic charm and lasting durability. Built to withstand the elements, these wood letters are designed to stand the test of time

Yes — high-quality rattan dining chairs can absolutely last a long time, and they can be strong enough for commercial use — if you choose the right build.

Durability Depends on the Build:

1. Solid Frame: Look for chairs built with hardwood or reinforced steel frames — not softwood or lightweight aluminum.
2. Tight Weave: Commercial-grade rattan chairs use a dense, even weave that won’t sag or fray over time.
3. Joinery: Screwed or wrapped joints > glued ones. You want structure, not shortcuts.

For Restaurants: Choose Wisely

• Natural rattan is stylish and warm, but best for indoor or covered outdoor spaces.

• For busy cafes or patios, consider synthetic rattan (PE wicker) — it's designed to handle spills, humidity, and daily traffic.

How Long Will They Last?

With the right care and commercial-grade quality, a good rattan chair can easily last 5–10 years in a restaurant setting — sometimes more.

Bottom line:
Yes, rattan can go commercial — but don’t buy the decorative kind.
Go for quality build, tight weave, and reinforced frames. They’ll look amazing and take the hits like a pro.

Great question — rattan has a lot going for it, but it’s not perfect for every situation. Here’s a no-fluff list of the main disadvantages of rattan furniture:

Doesn’t Like Moisture

Natural rattan is not waterproof. Leave it in the rain or damp conditions and it can warp, crack, or grow mold.

1. Best used indoors or in covered outdoor spaces.
2. Not ideal for uncovered patios or gardens.

Can Fade in Direct Sunlight

Prolonged UV exposure can dry it out and cause fading.

1. Keep it shaded or rotate pieces now and then.
2. Don’t leave it baking in full sun for months.

Weave Can Fray or Snap Over Time

Especially if it’s a loose or poorly made weave. High traffic = more wear.

1. Choose tightly woven, high-quality craftsmanship
2. Avoid overly thin or decorative-only pieces for everyday use.

Needs Occasional Maintenance

It lasts a long time, but it does better with light care — dusting, gentle cleaning, and avoiding excess moisture.

The Bottom Line:

Rattan is beautiful, strong, and natural — but it’s not bulletproof.

Choose the right type, place it smartly, and it’ll serve you well for years.

Where Can I Find Quality Rattan Furniture?

If you’re ready to invest in pieces that avoid many of the common disadvantages of cheaper sets, explore our full collection of high-quality Luxury Rattan Furniture. From rattan armchair garden furniture to luxury black rattan garden furniture, our designs combine style, comfort, and durability, making them a great choice for both indoor and outdoor spaces.

1. Tight, Even Weave

Look closely. Is the weave consistent? Are the strands snug and uniform?
Good rattan = no gaps, no sagging, no sloppy overlaps.

2. Solid Frame Material

Check what's underneath — is it made with hardwood, steel, or strong cane poles?
Cheap versions often use weak wood or plastic frames that wobble or warp.

3. Weight & Feel

High-quality rattan feels sturdy when you lift or sit in it — not flimsy or brittle.
It should flex slightly, but not creak or bend under pressure.

4. Smooth Finish

Run your hand over it.

It should feel smooth, sealed, and splinter-free — not rough or sharp at the edges.

5. Handcrafted Detail

Look at the joins and corners.

 Are they tightly wrapped and well-secured, or glued and rushed? Handmade pieces show care in the small stuff.

6. Real Rattan vs. Faux

Tap it. Real rattan is warm, fibrous, and natural-looking. Plastic versions may look shiny or too perfect.

If it’s plastic, it’s not premium — just wicker-style.

8. Not Sure What Rattan Furniture Buy?

Don’t worry — we’re the rattan whisperers. Message our team and we’ll guide you to the perfect piece for your space.

7. Not All Synthetic Rattan Is Cheap Junk

Don’t be fooled — not all plastic rattan is created equal.
While budget versions crack and fade, high-end synthetic rattan is engineered for outdoor living:
UV-resistant, all-weather proof, and built to handle years of sun, rain, and party spills.

8. Is There a High-Quality Rattan Option for Outdoors?

At Smithers, we stock luxury outdoor rattan sets with ultra-durable weaves and plush weatherproof cushions — so you get the style of natural rattan without the upkeep.

👉 See Our Outdoor Rattan Range

Short answer: Rattan chairs can get wet — but they shouldn’t stay wet.

Natural Rattan

• Can handle the occasional splash or light moisture

• But: prolonged exposure to water (rain, puddles, humidity) can cause it to warp, crack, or go moldy

• Best used indoors or in covered outdoor areas (porches, sunrooms, etc.)

What to Do If It Gets Wet:

1. Wipe it dry with a towel ASAP
2. Let it air-dry completely in a well-ventilated space
3. Avoid leaving it on wet surfaces

Avoid This:

1. Leaving natural rattan furniture outside overnight or in the rain
2. Using it in damp basements or unventilated storage

What About Synthetic Rattan?

If you want a rattan look that’s fully weatherproof, go for PE rattan (resin wicker) — it’s made for outdoor use and can handle the elements.

Bottom line:
Natural rattan = low-key water-resistant, not waterproof.
Treat it with care, and it’ll last for years.

Actually, it’s not one or the other — because wicker is a style of weave, and rattan is a material.

Rattan

• A strong, flexible natural material (like a vine)

• Lightweight but durable

• Commonly used in high-quality dining chairs and frames

• Can be woven into wicker styles or used as solid poles

Wicker

• A weaving technique, not a material
• Can be made from rattan, bamboo, plastic, or resin
• Depends entirely on what it's made from

So what’s better for dining?

A rattan chair with wicker weave is usually best — it gives you the beauty of the wicker look with the strength and natural warmth of real rattan.

Bottom line:
If you're choosing between a rattan dining chair and a cheap synthetic wicker one, rattan wins every time for quality, feel, and longevity.

Not at all — rattan furniture is surprisingly easy to maintain.

Here’s the truth:
Good-quality rattan practically takes care of itself. It's durable, lightweight, and made to last. Just follow these simple tips:

Basic Rattan Care:

• Dust it regularly with a soft cloth or vacuum brush.

• Wipe with a damp cloth (not soaking wet) to keep it clean.

• Keep it dry — rattan doesn’t like sitting in moisture.

• Avoid harsh sunlight to prevent fading if it’s natural rattan.

• Tighten screws or check joints occasionally if it’s a flat-pack build.

Bonus:

For spills or deeper cleans, use a mild soap and warm water — then dry it off with a soft towel. That's it.

So no, it’s not hard at all. In fact, that’s why people love it — rattan gives you texture and style without the high maintenance.

It’s possible, yes — like many wood or rattan chairs, a slight squeak can happen when placed on hard floors, especially if the surface isn’t perfectly level or the chair legs shift under weight.

✅ How to Fix It:

• Add felt pads or rubber feet to the bottom of each leg — this reduces friction and absorbs movement.

• Check leg balance — if one leg is slightly off, a small adhesive floor pad can even things out.

• Keep the floor clean — dust or grit under the feet can cause noise as the chair moves.

• Tighten joints — if it’s a flat-pack or assembled chair, give screws or bolts a quick check to ensure they’re secure.

Most squeaks are easy fixes, and if your chair’s well-built (like ours), it’ll settle in quickly. Want it pre-padded? Just ask — we’re happy to help.

The difference is in the details, materials, and build quality—and you can feel it the moment you sit down.

Here’s what sets a designer rattan chair apart:

• Solid Frame: Designer chairs use hardwood or powder-coated steel—not flimsy hollow metal or soft pine that warps.

• Real Rattan: Cheap chairs often use plastic or paper-based faux cane. High-end options use hand-woven natural rattan or sustainable cane that lasts.

• Joinery & Craft: Designer chairs are built to last with proper joints and finishes, not staples and glue.

• Comfort & Ergonomics: The curves, angles, and seat height are properly designed—no wobble, no weird lean.

• Finish Quality: Smooth edges, consistent weaves, and natural tones. No frayed cane, sharp corners, or spray-on orange gloss.

• Timeless Design: Cheap chairs follow fast trends. Designer rattan feels intentional, sculptural, and styled to last.

In short: it’s not just a chair—it’s craftsmanship you can see and sit on.

You're not wrong—UK brands have a serious edge when it comes to rattan design. Why? Because British makers blend vintage style with modern craftsmanship, often using better materials, timeless silhouettes, and real artisan detail. It’s not mass-produced fast furniture—it’s character in every curve.

And yes — we do ship to America.
We’re happy to get our rattan pieces across the pond. Shipping costs and delivery times vary depending on the item and destination, but we’ll make sure your chair arrives safely and in style.

Need a quote or help picking the right chair for your space? Just ask — we’ve got you.

Neon signs never truly went out of style—but a few myths made people think they did. Here's why:

• LED Took the Spotlight: With the rise of cheaper, energy-efficient LED signs, many assumed traditional neon was obsolete. But that’s only part of the story.

• Vintage Misconceptions: Neon is often linked to retro diners or old-school bars. People wrongly label it as outdated, when in fact, it’s a timeless design statement.

• Maintenance Myths: Some believe neon is hard to maintain or fragile. In reality, quality glass neon is durable and long-lasting when made properly.

• Visual Noise: Overuse of poorly designed signage in the early 2000s led to a visual burnout. But modern neon is all about clean, artistic expression—often custom and minimalist.

Today, neon is thriving again—in homes, weddings, pop-ups, and art galleries. It’s not just popular, it’s iconic.

How long does a custom neon sign take to make after we place an order?
For custom signs, production time depends on the type of neon:

• Glass Gas Neon Signs: These are handcrafted and take approximately 6 weeks to complete.

• Liquid LED Neon Signs: These are faster to produce and typically take around 3 weeks.

Yes—we ship our real-glass neon signs all across the USA, fast and fully insured. Whether you're in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Miami, Austin, or San Francisco, Smithers brings Shoreditch swagger straight to your doorstep.

Looking for a custom neon in Nashville, a bold wall piece in Seattle, or some glow-up magic in Atlanta? We’ve got you. Our signs are made in our studio (not mass-produced plastic), packed with care, and ready to shine Stateside.

Good afternoon Lucy,

Thank you for your enquiry. We only supply replacement cushions for customers who have previously purchased the Windsor Outdoor Rattan Furniture Suite directly from us. If you have an order number, we’ll be happy to check stock and assist you.

If not, I’m afraid we won’t be able to help on this occasion, as we don’t carry cushions separately for non-customer orders. Many people in this situation choose to have bespoke cushions made locally, which ensures the perfect fit for their existing rattan furniture.

Kind regards,
Tg

Thanks so much for your message. Our vintage Café Dining Chairs – French Industrial in Turquoise are available in sets, and we can supply around 10 plus chairs to match your order. They’re in excellent condition — solid, sturdy, and ready for both home and commercial use.

If you’d like, we can let you know as soon as those arrive.

Hi Isabella,

Hi, really sorry but these are stock photos we dont have any more images of the driftwood dining table

Hi sorry we won't be restocking drum tables 

Hi its grey colour 

Hi Lauren,

Thanks for your message  not a silly question at all.

The table is constructed with solid glass panels to the front, top, and sides. It’s structurally very robust and, yes, it’s strong enough to stand on without issue.

To clarify the listing and the review: we originally had two identical daft punk tables from the same private collector. One has already sold, and this is the second and final piece. That’s why there’s an existing review referencing the item. We wouldn’t expect to be getting any more of these.

In terms of origin, both came from a collector rather than being recent production, which is also why availability is limited. It’s original built by tom Dixon 

If you need any further details, just let me know.

Best regards,

Nick

Absolutely — several of our armchairs are designed with supportive comfort in mind, not just good looks. If back pain’s the worry, you’ll want something with proper structure, decent cushioning, and a seat that doesn’t swallow you whole. Our retro-inspired armchairs and nursery nursing chairs are firm enough to give lumbar support, while still feeling stylish.

Take our Charlie Bear Rocking Armchair or the Teddy Fur Chair — both have high backs, padded arms, and a gentle tilt that keeps your posture in check while you relax and ideal if you want support without losing that bold Smithers character.

In short: yes, we’ve got chairs that look good and have your back.

👉 You can browse them here: Armchairs and rocking chairs here.

Yes we do. When you land on our reclaimed wood dining table category, you can use the filter tab marked ‘Wood’ to see all the options, including a variety of timbers crafted from reclaimed wood.'

We offer both genuine glass gas neon signs and LED neon light styles across our main Neon category. This question is a general one for the full range.

If you want to check the exact type of any neon sign, go to our homepage and click the Neon Signs image to enter the Neon Lab. There you’ll see all subcategories, including LED Neon, Gas Neon, Wall Neons, and Table Neons.

For every individual product, you can confirm the specification in the Size, Build, and Hue section on the product page. The accordion drop-down clearly states whether that specific item is LED or real gas neon.

Yes we do have the 300cm version but it does not come with bench set at the moment, if you want to purchase the table top we can sell this to you, Please contact us here

Hi there,

Yes, we ship worldwide. Our website automatically estimates shipping costs and any applicable duties or tariffs for most countries.

For larger items, we recommend requesting a manual quote from us first, as the website is not always able to accurately calculate shipping costs for oversized or specialist deliveries to every country.

Just let us know what you’re interested in and where it’s going, and we’ll be happy to help.

No, a dead neon tube cannot be electrically “repaired” if it has lost gas or the electrode has failed we would have to remake it for you.

Hi Annette,

Thanks for your message and your interest in the rectangular driftwood dining table.

If you scroll down on the product page and click on the Size & Build tab, you’ll see the full dimensions listed there — this includes the length, width and height.

The table comes with tempered glass, and the glass edges are rounded for a smooth, finished look.

The driftwood colour is exactly as shown in the product pictures — a natural wood tone that isn’t extremely light white-washed nor dark brown, but a balanced, warm driftwood finish.

If you need any specific measurements repeated here (e.g., overall weight or thickness), let me know and I can send those across.

Kind regards, Smithers

So yes, we’ve got roots in Cambridgeshire, but these days it’s all about London energy with countryside craftsmanship. We ship UK-wide (and beyond), no walk-ins — just pure online style, Smithers style.

Once you've placed your order, you will receive an email within 2-4 days when you can expect your furniture or gifts to be delivered. 

We are really sorry if there has been a delay in getting your furniture to you. Very occasionally, circumstances can affect the production line of furniture items. If this means that your order will be delayed, we will send you an email letting you know the new delivery date.  If your items didn't arrive on time, and you haven't heard from us or our delivery partners, please get in touch with the Smithers team will be happy to help.

Delivery times are dependent on the product that you have ordered. Some products are available with 1-3 day delivery. Furniture sometimes is in stock. We have such a large range of products online so if you are unsure of the delivery eta please email us here and we can let you know lead time.

We will let you know the delivery day eta after ordering from us, we can send small items out on next day delivery if its in stock, but large furniture items do take longer to organise.

If you have placed an order for more than one item, we aren’t able to guarantee they will be delivered together. Items within your order are dispatched as soon as they are ready.

Hi Wendy, 

Many thanks for your enquiry. The Teddy Rocking Chairs are due to arrive with us any day now. Once they are with us, orders will be shipped out with DPD's next day delivery service. Delivery is free to UK addresses for the chairs. The colour is more of an off white to be honest - not stark white and not cream. In response to any constructing, it is a simple case of attaching the rocking base to the the bottom of the chair. All very easy.

If we can be of any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us on team@smithersofstamford.com

Best wishes, Smithers.

Thank you for getting in touch and for thinking of us regarding your Antique Box Settles. They sound like beautiful pieces with a lovely bit of history behind them.

Hi, £30.00

No. Across more than 12 years and over 10,000 orders, over 99.95% of items have arrived successfully and on time. All deliveries now come with live tracking, delivery notifications, and proof-of-delivery from trusted couriers.

In the very rare case something is delayed or goes missing, we either refund the customer or send a replacement straight away — no quibble. Older reviews online mentioning delays relate to supply issues from years ago, not the current service.

Very rarely. Across 12 years and over 10,000 orders, fewer than 5 parcels did not arrive — which is a delivery success rate of 99.95%. All orders now include tracked shipping, delivery notifications, and proof-of-delivery from our courier partners, so customers always know where their parcel is.
