A little care.
Every day.

Simple habits help preserve the feel and appearance of your timber furniture.

Timber is a
natural surface.

Our furniture is predominantly solid pine. Grain, knots and colour variation are part of the material. Pine is a softer timber, so knocks, pressure and dragging objects can leave marks.

About pine & your finish

A matte finish still needs protection from spills, heat and everyday abrasion.

Gentle cleaning · Heat & moisture · Lift, don’t drag

01 / Clean

Gentle cleaning.

Use a soft cloth for dust. For everyday spills, wipe promptly with a slightly damp cloth and dry the surface. Avoid abrasive pads, soaking and harsh cleaners.

02 / Protect

Heat & moisture.

Use coasters, placemats and heat-resistant trivets. Keep hot cookware, wet plant pots and standing water off the surface.

03 / Handle

Lift, don’t drag.

Lift objects when moving them across the top. Protect the surface when writing, crafting or working with items that could scratch or dent it.

Care for your particular finish

Care for your
particular finish.

Maintenance depends on the finish used on your piece. Contact us with your order details before applying wax, oil, polish, solvent or a repair product.

Keep indoor furniture away from prolonged direct sun and concentrated heat. If you are choosing a piece for outdoor use, confirm its suitability and care requirements with the studio.

A mark or a concern?

Send a clear photo, your order details and a description of what happened. We can review the surface and discuss the appropriate next step.

Avoid sanding or applying a repair coating before speaking with us; it may change the colour or surface.
