Care Guide

Our pieces are built to last, but materials respond to their environment. With a little attention, your furniture will age with clarity and character.

General Care

Wood, cane, and natural textiles react to sunlight, heat, and moisture. Keep your furniture away from direct sun, damp corners, or areas with high temperature shifts. Indoor use is strongly recommended.

Wood Care

Most of our furniture is crafted from teak, pine, and steam beech. Each wood behaves differently, but the basics are the same.

Cleaning

Wipe regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For sticky spots, use a mild solution of water and dish soap (4:1). Avoid harsh cleaners.

Restoring the Finish

If the surface looks dull or discoloured (especially near the legs) apply a thin layer of hard wax oil with a soft cloth. 

Heat Marks

If a mug or hot plate leaves a light ring, warm the area gently with a hair dryer on low. Keep the dryer moving. Finish with a touch of wax oil if needed.

Avoid

Prolonged direct sunlight, constant moisture, and cleaning agents with chemicals or abrasives.

Upholstery Care

Our upholstery fabrics are selected for comfort and longevity.

Routine Care

Vacuum gently with a soft brush attachment to prevent dust from settling into the fibres.

Spills & Stains

Blot immediately, never rub. Test any solvent on a hidden area before use.

Protection

A fabric protector spray (like Scotchgard) can be used once a year, though it may slightly stiffen the fabric.

Cushion Maintenance

If your piece has loose cushions, rotate and fluff them occasionally to maintain shape.

Velvets

Vacuum regularly. Use a garment steamer to lift creases and restore the pile.

Avoid

Harsh sunlight, poorly ventilated rooms, and strong chemical cleaners.

Rugs

Our rugs are made from natural fibers like jute, cotton, and wool, so they do best with gentle, regular care.

  • Vacuum often using strong suction and a brush attachment. Avoid heavy beater bars.
  • Clean spills immediately: blot, don’t rub. Lift solids with a spoon.
  • Test any cleaning agent on a hidden corner first, and always apply it to a cloth - not directly to the rug.
  • Keep moisture to a minimum, as excess water can damage natural fibers.

A few natural irregularities are normal:

  • Short fibers may sprout over time; simply trim them neatly.
  • Vacuum the bindings too. Fabric bindings can be spot-cleaned with mild detergent; leather bindings can be wiped with a damp cloth.

To avoid mildew:

  • Keep rugs away from damp or humid areas.
  • If mildew appears, start with a dry carpet-cleaning kit.
  • A very diluted bleach solution can be used sparingly after a patch test, but the rug must dry fully within a few hours.
