The difference between new and true vintage lies in origin and essence—

Roweam’s New Vintage pieces are designed in-house: meticulously crafted, rooted in classic silhouettes, and refined with a modern eye.

True Vintage, on the other hand, is unearthed—one-of-a-kind finds with rich patina, history, and an irreplicable soul. Together, they create a collected elegance—spaces that feel storied, nuanced, and effortlessly timeless.

We work closely with local artisans throughout the East Coast to develop our original forms, each shaped with a deep understanding of function, material, and technique. Once the piece has been refined through a meticulous review process, it is entrusted to heritage craftsmen in Rhode Island, New York, and North Carolina to be faithfully reinterpreted with generational expertise.

We are actively working toward becoming fully sustainable. We use recycled materials and organic fabrics in our upholstered goods. Every piece is shipped in eco-conscious packaging and thoughtfully delivered to your home.

While we’re proud of the steps we’ve taken, we know there’s more to do—and we’re committed to getting there. If you see something we could improve, we’d love to hear from you at hello@roweam.com.

We designed the Bromley Sofa with the family in mind. The slipcover and cushion covers are removable and dry clean only.

We advise dusting your wooden furniture, art, decor and mirrors often and if necessary wiping with a damp cloth followed by a dry cloth.

Our hardwood furniture is sealed for everyday use, however if a glass is left unattended water marks will appear. We’re gritty at Roweam and patina makes us happy. We make furniture to use, so sit and enjoy.

All soft goods including sofa cushions and slipcovers are recommended dry clean only. Do not machine wash. 

You may use a steamer on medium to remove wrinkles. Do not iron.

Our fabrics are organic in nature which allow for movement. If you find your tight back sofa is wrinkling, a simple swipe of the hand and fabric tuck in the arm will remove those lines. Our cushion internals will settle over time. To keep them fresh it’s recommended to fluff and pat them to organize the contents. 

For any soft good or upholstered items, it’s best to use a damp cloth to pat out the stain, do not rub. Never use harsh chemicals to remove stains. There are companies we recommend for eco-friendly fabric treating and stain removal services. Reach out for more details.

Our fabrics are organic in nature which allows for movement in color variation and texture. It’s important to remember when purchasing an item upholstered in fabric with higher piles, like velvet, mohair, and chenille that those variations will be highlighted. These fabrics are luxurious and pile inconsistencies are not a flaw should be embraced. The light illuminates the pile fibers which can appear as shading and scarring overtime and isn't faulty or defective. It is not uncommon for these fabrics to crush and distort over time with use, they are made to age. We use these fabrics often in our designs and cherish their unique qualities.

To keep these fabrics looking young, it’s recommended to use a velvet brush or vacuum with an upholstery attachment to reorganize the pile as you desire.

Never use an iron. You may use a steamer on low to remove wrinkles.

Do not steam or iron shearling.

It’s never recommended to use harsh chemicals on leather. Our leather is organic which allows for movement in color variation and texture. Frequently dusting leather will remove minute particles before they settle. A quick wipe with a dry or slightly damp cloth will remove settled particles. Avoid handling leather items with dirty hands, oil and residue will transfer to leather easily. It’s recommended to remove dirt build-up once a year with a leather cleaner. It’s best practice to never leave a wet item on leather as it will distort the material. 

Do not iron or steam.
