1. Wooden Furniture Care Guide
Wooden furniture requires regular care to maintain its natural beauty and ensure its longevity.
Daily Cleaning
Dust gently with a soft, ideally dry, microfiber cloth.
For a more thorough cleaning, use a cloth lightly dampened with a neutral soap, then wipe dry immediately to prevent moisture absorption.
Protecting and Hydrating the Wood
Apply a natural wax or nourishing wood oil two to four times a year to maintain shine, enhance protection, and prevent drying.
Avoid products containing ammonia or harsh solvents, which can damage the finish.
Care Precautions
Keep furniture away from direct heat sources (radiators, fireplaces) and prolonged exposure to sunlight to prevent warping, cracking, or discoloration.
Always use placemats, coasters, and trivets to protect surfaces from heat, moisture, and scratches.
Wipe up any spills immediately to prevent stains and seepage.
2. Vanity, Dressing Tables, Nightstands & Dressers Care Guide
Bedroom furniture such as vanity tables, dressing tables, nightstands, and dressers often feature painted, lacquered, or veneered surfaces that require extra attention to preserve their decorative finish.
Daily Cleaning
Wipe surfaces gently with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to remove dust. Avoid abrasive cloths or sponges that may scratch delicate finishes.
For light soiling, use a cloth barely dampened with water and a small amount of mild soap, then dry immediately.
Caring for Mirrors and Glass Surfaces
Clean mirror surfaces with a glass cleaner sprayed onto a soft cloth — never directly onto the mirror — to avoid moisture seeping into the frame or backing.
Avoid ammonia-based products, which can damage antique mirror coatings over time.
Care Precautions
Keep perfumes, cosmetics, and liquids away from painted or lacquered surfaces, as chemical contact can cause staining or finish deterioration.
Use a tray or mat to protect the surface from bottles and accessories.
Avoid placing in areas with high humidity, such as near bathrooms, to prevent swelling or paint lifting.
3. Metal Furniture Care Guide
Metal furniture is distinguished by its robustness and modern aesthetic. Proper care ensures its durability and preserves the quality of its finish.
Cleaning and Routine Maintenance
Regularly wipe the surface with a slightly damp microfiber cloth to remove dust and marks.
For more stubborn stains, use a mild, non-abrasive detergent, then rinse with a damp cloth before drying thoroughly.
Avoid any products containing acids, solvents, or corrosive agents.
Corrosion Prevention
Always dry metal surfaces after cleaning, as prolonged moisture can promote rust.
In humid environments, regularly apply a thin coat of protective oil or a specific wax to strengthen the corrosion barrier.
Precautions for Use
Avoid impacts and scratches that could damage the paint or protective coating.
Use felt pads under the feet to protect both furniture and floors.
Do not place extremely hot or heavy objects directly on metal surfaces to avoid deformation or damage.
