Price Promise
Our Price Promise
We know that price is important. And while all of our designs follow the recommended retail prices (RRP) from our suppliers, we’re determined never to be bested.
It’s why we decided to introduce our Chaplins Price Promise. A guarantee to try and match the price of a branded product should you find it on sale at another authorised UK retailer. While the offer only applies to new designs (rather than clearance, outlets or ex-display) it’s our way of showing that we don’t just offer the best in service or style, but are committed to competitive pricing, too.
Please click on the button below should you wish to query a price. If a competitor's offer isn't immediately apparent online, we may ask you to supply us with a written quotation from the retailer — just to confirm the details.
And remember, Chaplins newsletter subscribers get an exclusive first order discount when they sign up. All of the details of which you can find in the footer below.

Brand Profile
Porada
Since 1948 Porada has been in a passionate love affair with wood. The ability to turn a log into a sculptural piece of furniture forms the roots of this luxury Italian brand. Porada has found international recognition for its exceptional design with the use of a perfect equilibrium between form and function in everyday objects, together with an elegant and evolved taste. Porada's desire to make long-lasting art out of the natural world has led to collaborations with renowned designers including Stefano Bigi, Tarcisio Colzani, Maconato & Zappa and Gina Corollo.
