Wood displays different grain patterns depending on which way it is 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 wood. Some furniture is also deliberately aged and rustic.
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 wood furniture
Furniture with a hard lacquer, wax polish or painted surface should be dusted with a dry cloth. When using the
surface for serving food and drinks it is best to use protective mats and coasters. Spillages should be wiped up
as soon as possible.
Spray polishes are best avoided as they contain silicones which may spoil the furniture's surface by building up
over time. Use of cleaning materials containing abrasive compounds, acidic or caustic reagents and any bleaches
containing oxidising reagents should be avoided as prolonged use may damage the lacquer surface. Wipe up
spills immediately. If sticky marks occur on the surface they can be removed with a dilute solution of warm
soapy water. The offending area should be rubbed lightly and then completely dried immediately afterwards,
before replacing any mats etc.
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.
PLEASE KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
Never drag furniture when moving it, always lift it. Please take care when handling or moving the furniture as
careless handling may cause damage or injury. No liability will be acepted for damage or injury caused by
incorrectly installed furniture.
