Wood Furniture
Wood displays different grain patterns depending on which way they are cut - for example, the
“medullary way” 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 Veneer also allows distinctive patterns to be created on flat surfaces, such as table tops and
drawer fronts by the way the slivers are arranged.
All timber surfaces will change colour and mellow over time. New furniture will initially vary in
shades from items that have been previously purchased.
How to care for your wood furniture.
Furniture with a hard lacquer, wax polish or painted surface needs to be dusted with a dry cloth.
Wax 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 by
building up over time.
Our furniture will endure most temperatures in the home but it is best to avoid placing furniture next
to heat sources such as radiators and fires. Be particularly careful with solid wood as the lack of
humidity caused by central heating can cause damage such as warping.

Never drag furniture when moving it, always lift it.
periodically check all fixings to ensure non have come loose and re-tighten when necessary.
Please take care when handling or moving furniture as careless handling may cause damage or
injury.
Furniture can be dangerous if incorrectly installed. Any assembly should be carried out by a
competent adult.
No liability will be accepted for damage or injury caused by incorrectly installed or assembled
furniture.During assembly children should be kept away from the product due to possible risk
of injury.Do not use this item if any components are missing or damaged.
It is recommended that care is taken when moving heavy objects to a new location to avaoid
personal injury or damage to the furniture. Please be careful to retain all fittings when doing this.
This product is suitable for children aged 3 - 12 years
Warning: Do not place this child’s wardrobe near heat sources, windows or other furniture.
Warning: Do not use this child’s wardrobe if any part is broken, torn or missing.
Children are likely to play, bounce, jump and climb on furniture, therefore the furniture should
not be placed too close to other furniture or windows, curtain pulls or other strings or cords and
