Spray polishes are best avoided as they contain silicones which may spoil the furniture’s
surface by building up over time.
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.
Extendable dining tables should be left extended for the first few months to avoid an uneven
appearance. Likewise, lamps and ornaments should also be moved regularly.
Our furniture will endure most temperatures in the home but it is best to avoid placing furniture
next to heat sources such as radiators or fires. Be particularly careful with solid wood as the lack
of humidity caused by central heating can cause damage such as warping.

it is important to remember that your piece is still a wood piece of furniture and should be cared
for as such.
Painted furniture still requires regular dusting with a damp cloth. When very soiled wash with a
solution of mild, non-abrasive detergent and warm water. Wring a cloth nearly dry and work on a
small section at a time, then rinse with clear water drying after..
Never leave water to settle on the surface as this will cause damage. Any liquid spilled onto the
item should be cleaned up immediately using an absorbent cloth.
AVOID chemical cleaners or liquid furniture polish including direct contact with greasy
substances.
As with all natural wood products, there will be some movement within the parts as the furniture
acclimatises to its surroundings, you may see slight chipping and cracks where panels meet,

Painted surfaces can be carefully touched up with matching paint.
There will be various brush lines, slubs, and little inconsistencies in the painted finish, this is all
part of the relaxed handfinished look and feel of hand painted collections.
