CARE FOR YOUR WOODEN FURNITURE

Your fine wooden furniture is handcrafted from carefully selected timber. Each piece is individual, and over time the surface or colour may change.

Protecting your wooden furniture

Your furniture is protected with four coats of lacquer and a layer of wax. To avoid warping and splitting, keep wooden furniture away from direct heat sources such as radiators. Avoid bleaching by keeping your wooden furniture out of direct sunlight.

Cleaning your wooden furniture

Avoid using silicone waxes, lemon oil and oil-based polishes on your fine wooden furniture. Use a good quality beeswax to protect your wooden furniture, and wax new furniture during the first 30 days. Between waxings, dust wooden furniture with a soft, moist, lint-free cloth.

Moving wooden furniture

Never move a loaded wardrobe. When positioning a wardrobe, ensure it is on a level surface so that the doors will open and close correctly. Never pick up a chest by its top surface. Instead, hold the sides of the chest and lift.
