We aim to keep our full collection in stock.
Should your favorite item be sold out at the moment, you can add your email address to the waiting list on the product page. This is the best way to make sure you'll receive first hand information once it’s restocked!
When the item is on its way to our warehouse the lead time will be shown on the product page.
Where are Hem products made?
Hem manufactures 98 percent of its collection in Europe, and the remaining 2 percent, our rug collections, are produced at a GoodWeave-certified manufacturer in India.
