This item comes fully assembled.
Wood & veneer are natural materials & therefore will display natural variations in their grain and colour. Their surfaces are affected by light & overtime their character & colour will change. As the solid timbers in our range are natural products, they may expand & contract due to varying temperature & environmental conditions. This may cause cracks in the timber. This is normal & not considered a fault or flaw; rather, it is a unique & beautiful characteristic of your piece.
To minimise movement, solid furniture should not be placed outside (unless the item is specified for outdoor use), in direct sunlight, or in heavily air-conditioned or climate-controlled areas. The care of wood furniture varies according to the wood type & finish, & the function of the piece.
- To dust, we recommend using a microfiber cloth as this will not damage the surface.
- For deeper cleaning, wipe the surface of your timber with a damp cloth, then dry with a soft clean cloth to prevent spotting.
- The surface of your furniture should not come in contact with hot &/or moist/wet containers/materials. We always recommend using coasters, place mats, tablecloths & table runners to protect furniture surfaces from heat & stains. Take extra care to protect your surfaces from candles and heated objects.
- If you choose to polish your furniture with a product/solvent, you should always try it out first on a small, inconspicuous area to trial how your timber will react.
- Certain drawers/doors on our pieces have a push to open/close mechanism. With this mechanism, it is important to ensure you place two hands on each side of the drawer/door when opening/closing to ensure an even amount of pressure is applied. Not doing this may cause the runner to dis-align & will not be covered by statutory warranty.
- To prevent permanent discolouration, do not leave objects in the same position on the furniture over long periods of time.
- Do not use furniture when multiple drawers & doors are open simultaneously as it can affect the stability & become a tipping hazard.
- Do not clean painted timber with alcohol, ammonia-based &/or harsh chemicals as this may cloud the surface &/or remove the paint finish.
- Clean your painted surface with a dust cloth or feather duster to remove dust & debris.
- Should you use a damp cloth for cleaning, ensure that the cloth is not soaked & the surface is dried with a clean dry cloth immediately after wiping.
- Do not hit the painted finish with a vacuum cleaner or other heavy items as this will chip the finish.
- Avoid using paper towel on acrylic surfaces.
