Shipping damage happens once in a while, no matter how careful we are at packaging. All we ask is that if you do have shipping damage and we need to replace the item, please help us by supplying us with pictures and being willing to talk to the insurance company if they want to call you to verify the insurance claim. Insurance companies will often investigate a claim if it is over $200.

Ragsdale uses environmentally-friendly materials and processes. Our wood is drawn from private, sustainably managed forests in Michigan and throughout the Midwest. We use genuine mica, which was originally mined near Asheville, NC, and is a naturally occurring mineral. Our art glass is all manufactured in the U.S. and our electrical parts are all purchased from companies in the U.S. We use many different types of stained glass, some of which are Kokomo streaky glass, which is still hand rolled today in Kokomo, IN, just as it was during the Civil War. Another thing you will notice about our work is the finish. The dark color appears to shine, but with a flat, silky feel to it. The feel is very organic and waxy, not like that of a plastic surface, but rather the wood itself. When sealed correctly, quarter sawn oak will last for centuries because it is a very stable wood, the second hardest wood found naturally in the U.S.
