CARING FOR YOUR FURNITURE

GENERAL CARE

Please ensure that your furniture is used as it was intended. Do not sit or stand on table tops, do not sit on arms of lounges and do not pivot on the back legs of chairs.

SUNLIGHT

As with any product, prolonged exposure of furniture to direct sunlight will harm it. Direct exposure to sunlight will cause natural materials and fabrics to fade and may also cause excessive drying. Direct exposure to sunlight will cause timber products to warp and crack.

FABRIC UPHOLSTERED FURNITURE

Dust is best removed using your vacuum cleaner with the appropriate attachment or a soft brush. Do not allow cats or dogs to walk on fabric upholstered furniture. As many fabrics differ in properties, it is best to follow the unique care and cleaning instruction labels.

LACQUERED AND TIMBER FINISHES

Natural timber will show distinctive markings, patterns and colour variations which are evidence of being produced from genuine timber materials. Always use coasters when placing glasses, bottles or cups on the surface. Always use protective heat coverings to protect against hot objects. A tablecloth is not sufficient. Any liquid spills should be wiped clean immediately to prevent any damage or staining. Avoid spilling nail polish remover, solvents or alcohol on the surface. Do not use harsh commercial sprays e.g. Mr Sheen. Instead, we recommend using a specialised furniture wax or oil.

GLASS

Use a regular glass cleaner with an appropriate soft cloth for glass. Avoid contact with sharp or hard objects as this will cause scratching. Always use a mat to avoid hot objects being in direct contact with the glass. Never lift glass tops from the ends of a table as this will put unnecessary stress on the surface and may cause it to break.
