Furniture Care

A little everyday care will keep your furniture looking good for years.

Everyday cleaning

• Dust with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.
• For spills or sticky spots, wipe with a soft cloth dampened with water (and a drop of mild dish soap if needed), then dry immediately.
• Wipe up spills promptly — don't let liquids stand on the surface.

What to avoid

• Harsh or abrasive cleaners, ammonia, bleach and silicone-based furniture polishes
• Placing hot dishes, pans or mugs directly on the surface — use trivets and coasters
• Leaving wet glasses or vases directly on the wood
• Cutting directly on the surface
• Dragging heavy or rough objects across the top

Placement

• Keep furniture out of prolonged direct sunlight, which can fade or change the color of wood and finish.
• Avoid placing pieces directly next to heating vents, radiators, fireplaces or humidifiers.
• Aim for a stable indoor humidity; large swings encourage wood movement.

Long-term care
