Although oak wood the least of solid hardwood's reacts to micro climate changes in the premises, it is living material, which expands and contracts in response to varying climatic conditions, thus appearing of cracks is possible.

Therefore, in order to keep the furniture beautiful and sound for long we recommend the following:

wood:

• Avoid exposing the furniture to excessive heat or direct sunlight as this can cause cracking and deterioration of the colour.
• Furniture should be kept at heated premises in order to avoid long term humidity impact on solid wood.
• Any spills should be removed immediately with a soft damp cloth. Never put hot dishes or any other hot things directly onto wooden surfaces.
• The spots left by water or other liquids can be removed by scouring the surface with fine sandpaper carefully and applying some furniture oil on the furbished place after.
• Take care when moving the furniture and never drag the pieces across the floor as this can cause damage to the joints.
• Occasionally rotate accessories so they do not remain in the same spot for extended periods.
• To maintain the furniture in perfect condition, please take care that in the first 3 months the thin coat of furniture oil should be applied with a sponge, once a month.
• After this period an application of oil once a year should be sufficient to maintain the soft oil finish of the furniture piece.

Fabric

• To remove lint, dust and animal hair from upholstered surfaces use bristle clothing brush.

• Spots and stains need to be cleaned as soon as possible. Test the cleaning products on a hidden part of the fabric first.
• To clean greasy marks such as lipstick, oils or chocolate, use a dry cleaning solvent.
• Wash non-greasy stains by sponging briskly with a soapy solution of natural soap in lukewarm water. Rinse thoroughly with clean water, and air dry.
• When overall cleaning is required, professional cleaning will often achieve the most satisfactory results.
