Furniture Care Guide
1. Wood Furniture Care Guide
Wooden furniture requires regular maintenance to preserve its natural beauty and ensure its longevity.
Daily cleaning
Dust gently with a soft microfiber cloth, ideally dry.
For a more thorough clean, use a slightly damp cloth with a neutral soap, then wipe immediately to prevent moisture absorption.
Wood protection and hydration
Apply a natural wax or a wood-specific nourishing oil two to four times a year to maintain shine, enhance protection and prevent drying.
Avoid products containing ammonia or harsh solvents that could damage the finish.
Precautions for use
Keep furniture away from direct heat sources (radiators, fireplaces) and prolonged direct sunlight to prevent warping, cracking, or color variations.
Always use trivets, placemats, and coasters to protect the surface from heat, moisture, and scratches.
Wipe up any spills immediately to prevent stains and leaks.
2. Fabric Furniture Care Guide
Fabric-covered furniture provides warmth and comfort, but requires regular care to maintain its original appearance and prevent premature wear and tear.
Regular cleaning
Vacuum at least once a week with a soft nozzle to remove dust, crumbs, and particles that could damage the fibers.
Shake or tap the removable cushions to maintain their shape and prevent dust from accumulating inside.
Spot treatment
Treat the stain completely and immediately: Gently dab with a clean cloth, without rubbing, using a mixture of warm water and neutral soap.
For the most stubborn stains, use a suitable textile cleaner or call a professional service.
Always test the product on an inconspicuous area before any full application.
Fabric Protection
Apply a stain protectant or waterproofing spray specifically designed for upholstery to improve resistance to fouling.
Avoid direct sun exposure to prevent fabric fading and warping.
Carefully follow the manufacturer's instructions for washing removable covers and make sure they are completely dry before putting them back in place to avoid residual moisture.
3. Metal Furniture Care Guide
Metal furniture stands out for its robustness and modern aesthetics. Proper maintenance ensures its durability and preserves the quality of its finish.
Cleaning and routine maintenance
Wipe the surface regularly 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 product that contains acids, solvents, or corrosive agents.
Corrosion prevention
Always dry metal surfaces after cleaning, as prolonged moisture can promote rust.
In humid environments (seaside, bathroom), regularly apply a thin layer of protective oil or specific wax to strengthen the anti-corrosion barrier.
Precautions for use
Avoid bumps and scratches that could damage the paint or protective coating.
Use felt glides under the feet to protect both the furniture and the floors.
Do not place extremely hot or heavy objects directly on metal surfaces to avoid deformation or weathering.
