Care guide
Care and maintenance
Wood furniture
Wood displays different grain patterns depending on which way they are cut - for example, the 'medullary ray'
which can appear on oak furniture is a mark of good quality timber - these are just characteristics of the natural
beauty of the wood. Some furniture is also deliberately aged and rustic.
Wood veneers also allow a distinctive pattern to be created on some surfaces, such as tabletops and drawer fronts
by the way slivers are arranged.
AII timber and veneer surfaces will change colour and mellow over tirne. New furniture will initially vary in shade
from items that have been previously purchased.
How to care for your wood furniture
Furniture with a hard lacquer, wax polish or painted surface should be dusted with a dry cloth.
Waxed furniture will need to be given a coat of beeswax a couple of times a year to help maintain its lustre. Spray
polishes are best avoided as they contain silicones which may spoil the furniture's surface when building up over
tirne.
Make sure all surfaces are protected from heat and liquids by mats and coasters.Wipe up spills immediately and
ensure that a mat or pad is placed under paper if you are writing.
Our furniture will endure most temperatures in the home, but it is best to avoid placing furniture next to heat
