• Wipe the furniture daily with a soft cloth (a slightly moist cloth is advisable to catch dust).
• Avoid exposing the wood to alcohol, deodorants, perfumes, nail varnishes and similar liquids. If spills occur, wipe immediately with a dry cloth. These liquids will pull moisture from the wood if left, causing cracking. Alcohol such as red wine would also stain the wood.
• Place your furniture carefully so that it’s not in contact with direct sunlight (this can cause fading and, in extreme cases, cracking).
• Do not place furniture next to fireplaces or radiators as this can cause warping.
• We recommend using placemats and coasters when resting drinks or dishes on the furniture.
• Avoid all cleaning tools with a rough surface. This will wear down the finish and increase the likelihood of scratching.
• Avoid polish or cleaning products containing silicone, which can dry out natural wood over time.
• Do not use detergents or any cleaning products that contain ammonia. These will take the moisture out of the wood and wear down the finish much faster.
