Care and Maintenance
The Downton range is a timeless painted bedroom range in either white with metal cup handles or ivory
with solid oak tops and metal cup handles. Each piece has been carefully constructed to ensure it will give
you years of pleasure. The natural characteristics of oak may include small cracks, knots, blemishes, and
grain pattern variations which all add to the natural charm and beauty of this furniture product. Each piece
is unique, and for this reason no two pieces within the range will perfectly match, however there will be
harmony between all the pieces you may have purchased.
All timber surfaces will change colour and mellow over time. New furniture will initially vary in shade
from items that have been previously purchased.
How to care for your furniture
Try to avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight as this may alter the colour and tone of your
furniture over time.
Any spillages that do happen should be wiped up immediately with a clean dry lint free cloth to avoid
marking the surface of the furniture.
Safety Instructions
General warnings:
Never drag furniture when moving it, always lift it. Periodically check all fixings to ensure none have
come loose and re-tighten where necessary. Please take care when handling or moving the furniture as
careless handling may cause damage or injury.
Furniture can be dangerous if incorrectly installed. Assembly should be carried out by a competent
person. No liability will be accepted for damage or injury caused by incorrectly installed or assembled
furniture.
Specific warnings for heavy items:
It is recommended that before moving heavy objects to a new location they are completely disassembled
to avoid personal injury or damage to the furniture. Please be careful to retain all fittings when doing this.
