Proper Care for Your Luxury Furniture
Just like any other high-end item, luxury furniture requires special attention to maintain its original splendor. The distinctive natural features of timber, including grains, colors, knots, streaks, and pitch pockets, are integral characteristics and not indicative of quality defects. Prior to crafting, the wood undergoes a meticulous drying process to attain an optimal humidity level, ensuring it adapts well to the relative humidity in most households.
Luxury furniture interacts with its environment, continuously adjusting its water content. Minor issues such as door misalignment or slight floor unevenness in its placement area self-correct as the piece absorbs moisture, expanding subtly. These natural adjustments do not compromise the overall quality of the furniture.
Upon leaving our factory, every piece of furniture is meticulously positioned, with all doors and windows perfectly aligned. However, variations in flooring type and age can lead to discrepancies in alignment. Factors like the relocation of heavy items or fluctuations in surrounding moisture levels may also result in uneven drawers and doors. In such cases, readjustment is necessary to ensure proper alignment.
Care guidelines
- Furniture should be regularly cleaned with a soft cloth or soft thistle brush to avoid dust accumulating maintaining its beauty. Care should be taken while cleaning so as to not scratch the furniture surface with hardened dust grains.
- Whenever using a new furniture polish please always do a sample test to see the chemicals in the polish do not damage the polish of the furniture piece.
- For leather upholstery care should be taken to clean it with specialized leather cleaners. Leather upholstery needs to be kept moisturized and clean to ensure its longevity.
- Furniture should not be stored for long periods in hot or humid rooms.
- Avoid placing the furniture items too close to a direct heat source such as a fireplace or a heater.
- Avoid placing the furniture in direct sunlight and exposure to heat and water. This is especially important for both the wooden structure and the upholstery.
- DO NOT rock back on chairs.
- DO NOT place anything hot on the furniture directly. Use non-plastic mats on the table tops under the utensils, lamps and accessories.
- Protect the wood surface against the items that could stain or damage it. For example crayons, markers, Ball point pens & glue.
- Avoid excessive scratching by lifting up the objects rather dragging them against the wood surface. This may result in damage to the weight bearing supports of the furniture piece.
