Every price, on request
the order book
There is no number on this catalog because there is no piece until somebody orders one. Name the family, the cover and the room, and the number follows within a day.

why nothing is priced here
A sofa from Cabiate is a stack of decisions: the composition, the cover and its grade, the filling, the finish on the structure, the feet. Printing one number against the family name would price a sofa nobody ordered.
The quote prices the one you did order. It names every choice, puts the figure under them and holds for the period written on it.
what the reply carries
One document, by email, within one business day of the message landing. If the workshop has to be asked something first, you get a note the same day saying so and when the answer is due.
- The pieces, under the factory's own names
- The covers, veneers and stones that are open on them
- The lead time Cabiate confirms, not one guessed at here
- Freight to your address, with customs and insurance
- Assembly and setting down where the job needs it
what the quote is pricing
Each numbered layer in this section is a grade, and a step in any grade shifts the figure. That is the whole reason the form below asks for the room as well as the piece.
The drawing carries no measurements. The factory publishes none for these families, and inventing them here would be the one thing a specification cannot survive.
none of it is required
