Furniture Before Christmas 2026: When to Order from Turkey for Delivery in Europe
Short answer: If you want it before Christmas, choose in-stock pieces. Delivery to Europe takes about 2 weeks for in-stock items and about 6-7 weeks for made-to-order items (production and delivery to your door included). We plan every Christmas order to arrive by Friday 18 December at the latest — a full week before Christmas, so there is time to assemble and set everything up. Our Granada, Massimo and Velora bedroom sets are in stock, so they can be ordered until Friday 4 December 2026. For made-to-order pieces, the order-by date for 18 December falls between 30 October and 6 November 2026, so we can no longer promise that they will arrive before Christmas. Made-to-order pieces ordered after 6 November will be delivered after Christmas, mostly in January 2027. When you order, we confirm your delivery date in writing.
Christmas is when the dining table suddenly has to seat ten, the sofa has to hold the whole family after dinner, and the guest room finally needs a bed. The problem is that good furniture is rarely sitting in a warehouse waiting for you. This guide tells you when to order, what to order first, and how to avoid the classic December disappointment.

How we calculated it: we want your furniture at your door by Friday 18 December, one week before Christmas, so assembly never becomes a Christmas Eve job. Counting back about 2 weeks for in-stock items gives Friday 4 December. Counting back 6-7 weeks for made-to-order items gives 30 October–6 November.
These dates are for Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Austria, Switzerland and Bulgaria. For countries outside the six main ones (for example Italy, Spain, Poland or the Nordic countries), please ask us for a date before you order, because delivery there is arranged individually.
What to order first
If you are furnishing more than one room, order in this sequence:
- The dining table. It is the piece that matters most on the day. Our extending dining tables are made to order, so they belong in the first wave. An extending table gives you everyday size for most of the year and room for guests at Christmas; see how extending tables work and how many they seat. The Capi is round when closed and oval when opened; the Como has an oval-lined top with soft corners, which is comfortable when the room is full.
- The sofa set. A 3+3+1 set seats a crowd, and it needs no assembly: it arrives and you sit down. Browse sofa sets, for example the Arven, Petra or Rams sets, each with two three-seaters and an armchair, or the Tesla corner sofa with its reclining module for film nights.
- The guest bedroom. Bedroom sets need the most assembly work — which is why we plan a full week between delivery and Christmas. The quickest option: our Granada, Massimo and Velora bedroom sets are in stock and can be ordered until 4 December. See our guide to Turkish bedroom sets.
Ordering several pieces? Each product page shows its own delivery time, so plan around the longest one.
Sizing the table for a Christmas crowd
Most of the year you might be four at the table; on 24 or 25 December you might be ten. That gap is exactly what an extending table is for, but only if you size it for the open length, not the closed one.
- Count elbows, not plates. Allow roughly 60 cm of table edge per person, a little more if you like to serve family-style with dishes in the middle. Our dining table size guide has the table for 6, 8 and 10 people.
- Check the legs. A single central pedestal, as on the Valencia or Bugatti tables, lets chairs pull up anywhere along the edge; four corner legs fix where the corner places are.
- Round or long. A round table that opens to an oval, like the Capi, keeps everyone in one conversation. A long rectangle seats more people in a narrow room.
- Leave room to stand up. Keep space behind each chair when the table is fully open, and check the open length against the room, not just the closed size on the product page.
- Chairs arrive too. If you are adding chairs for the day, order them together with the table so that everything is made to the same calendar. See how to choose dining chairs.
Five ways to miss Christmas (and how to avoid them)
1. Waiting for November deals. A discount is worth less than a table that arrives in January. For made-to-order pieces, the calendar decides, not the campaign.
2. Not measuring the way in. A sofa that does not fit the lift cannot be fixed in December. Measure doors, stairs and the lift before ordering; our measuring guide takes ten minutes.
3. Choosing the table without counting chairs. A six-seater table does not become a ten-seater because it extends; check the open length and the chairs you have. Use our dining table size guide.
4. Changing the order after it is placed. On made-to-order furniture, a change to fabric, size or set contents can change the delivery time, as the product pages note. Decide before you order; if you are unsure about a fabric, ask us first.
5. Leaving assembly to the last evening. Sofa sets need no assembly. Tables, chairs and TV units go together with a small cordless screwdriver. A bedroom set is a bigger job, so talk to us before ordering about assembly at your address.

We confirm the date for your order when we confirm the order.
Does delivery to Europe add extra time?
No need to add anything: the times above (about 2 weeks in stock, about 6-7 weeks made to order) already include delivery from İnegöl to your door.
Can I order after 6 November and still get it before Christmas?
Yes for the in-stock Granada, Massimo and Velora bedroom sets (until 4 December). For made-to-order products, no: they take about 6-7 weeks, so they will be delivered after Christmas, mostly in January 2027. Contact us before ordering to find out which pieces are in stock.
