Solid wood naturally responds to changes in temperature and humidity. Light movement, small cracks, or shifts in the grain can occur over time — this is normal and doesn’t affect durability.

• Avoid direct sunlight to prevent accelerated aging of the finish.
• Use coasters or mats under hot items to protect lacquered surfaces.
• For minor marks on wood components, a matching wood‑finish stain marker can help with touch‑ups.

Different fabrics have different cleaning needs. Always check the cleaning code on your piece.

• Vacuum regularly using an upholstery attachment.
• Blot spills immediately with a clean, absorbent cloth.
• Follow the recommended cleaning method for your fabric type (water‑based, solvent‑based, combination, or vacuum‑only).
• When in doubt, a professional upholstery cleaner can help with deeper cleaning.

Rustic and lighter finishes — including white, ivory, and light gray — can show natural wood characteristics more visibly. Over time, you may notice small shifts in tone or markings as the finish settles and reacts to everyday conditions.

• Expect knots, grain variation, and occasional warm or amber tones around natural markings.
• Keep rustic pieces away from direct sunlight to prevent accelerated color changes.
• Maintain stable humidity levels to minimize movement or surface changes.
• For minor amber markings or touch‑ups, a matching finish kit can help refresh the surface.
