Care and Maintenance

 Use a soft, clean cloth that will not scratch the surface when dusting.

 Use of furniture polish is not necessary. Should you choose to use polish, test first in an

inconspicuous area.

 Using solvents of any kind on your furniture may damage the finish.

 Never use water to clean your furniture as it may cause damage to the finish.

 Always use coasters under beverage glasses and flowerpots.

 Liquid spills should be removed immediately. Using a soft clean cloth, blot the spill gently.

Avoid rubbing.

 Always use protective pads under hot dishes and plates. Heat can cause chemical changes

that may create spotting within the furniture finish.

 Stains or marks from crayons or ink markers will be difficult to remove.

 In the event that your furniture is stained or otherwise damaged during use, we recommend

that you call a professional to repair your furniture.

 Check bolts/screws and nuts periodically and tighten them if necessary.

Further advice about wood furniture care

It is best to keep your furniture in a climate-controlled environment. Extreme temperature and

humidity changes can cause fading, warping, shrinking and splitting of wood. It is advised to keep

furniture away from direct sunlight as sun may damage the finish.

Proper care and cleaning at home will extend the life of your purchase. Following these important

and helpful tips will enhance your furniture as it ages.

A Touch-up Pen has been provided to repair any small nicks or scratches that may occur during

assembly or shipping.

We hope you enjoy your purchase for many years.
