Care and Cleaning

Caring for Leather Furniture

It is best to keep leather furniture in a climate controlled environment. Extreme changes in temperature can cause leather to shrink and split while humidity can cause mildew to form on natural hides. Direct sunlight exposure may also damage leather products.

Blot spills immediately with a clean, soft cloth. If necessary, gently wipe away the spill using a clean cloth and lukewarm water.
Avoid placing your furniture in direct sunlight as color may fade over time when placed in direct sunlight.
Avoid using cleaning products that contain solvents or oils. Harsh chemicals and cleaning agents can damage leather furniture.
Try to maintain at least two feet between your furniture and any heat source. Prolonged exposure to heat sources or radiators will cause leather to crack.
Watch out for ink stains from markers and crayons as these will be difficult to remove.
In the event that your furniture is stained or otherwise damaged during use, we recommend that you consult with a professional before attempting to make any repairs yourself.

Caring for Metal Furniture

Indoor furniture is not recommended for outdoor use. You can extend the life of your purchase by keeping it indoors, away from direct sources of heat.

For everyday cleaning, chrome, brass, aluminum, and painted metal surfaces can be kept looking their best by dusting with soft cotton cloth or vacuum cleaner brush.
If soiled, wipe clean using a sponge or cloth dampened with water. Wipe dry to avoid water spots and residue.
Do not use any harsh, abrasive materials or chemicals to clean metal surfaces as it may damage the finish.
Metal can rust if the finish is deeply scratched or damaged or if your furniture is exposed to excessive humidity, particularly in salt water locations.
Most metal furniture has a protective coating to prevent rust, however rust may occur if the finish is marred or wears away over time.
In the event that your furniture is stained or otherwise damaged during use, we recommend that you consult with a professional before attempting to make any repairs yourself.

Caring for Upholstered Furniture

Small dust particles are very abrasive and can wear furniture prematurely. Regular vacuuming or light brushing helps to remove dirt and prevent soil build-up in the fabric’s fibers, which increases the appearance wear. Keep furniture away from direct heat and sunlight. Prolonged exposure to heat sources may cause glazing, melting and scorching, or even cause upholstery to fade.

Blot spills immediately to prevent staining. If necessary, gently wipe away the spill using a soft, clean cloth dampened with lukewarm water. Allow to dry and brush lightly.
Never use harsh chemicals or solvents on your upholstered furniture as this may damage the fabric.
If you choose to use a professional product, pretest the fabric in an inconspicuous area for any signs of discoloration or shrinking.
Marks and stains from pens, crayons and ink markers are difficult to remove. In the event that your furniture becomes permanently stained, we recommend that you consult a professional.

Caring for Wood Furniture

Extreme temperature and humidity changes can cause warping, shrinking and splitting of wood, so always keep wood dry and away from direct heat sources.

Use a soft, clean cloth that will not scratch the surface when dusting.
Use of furniture polishes is not necessary. Should you choose to use polishes, test in an inconspicuous area first.
Using solvents of any kind on your furniture may damage your furniture’s finish.
Liquid spills should be removed immediately. Using a soft clean cloth, blot the spill gently. Avoid rubbing and vever use water to clean your furniture as it may damage the finish.
Always use coasters under beverage glasses and flowerpots.
Always use protective pads under hot dishes and plates. Heat can cause chemical changes that may create spotting on the finish.
