Product Care Instruction

We run through all daily use scenarios when it comes to product design and pre-production testing, to ensure our products survive well through regular use and unavoidable little accident like spills and grease. As our furniture generally involves a few different material, we have prepared for you a list of super straight-forward and time saving care suggestions against each type of material.

1)    How to take care of your solid wood furniture?

Solid wood to furniture is like pearl to jewelry, It is versatile, durable, down to earth yet elegant, simply irresistible. Despite variation on their resistance to moist and temperature, different woods require similar basic care and maintenance.

Clean: Regular clean with water dampen rag then blot away remaining moisture with dry cloth. To remove grease, add an extra round of wiping with mild detergent (such as soap water or vinegar water) dampen cloth before cleaning with water. Always use a soft cotton cloth or fiber cloth, do not wash any solid wood furniture under running water or apply harsh cleaning products.

Protect: Heat and moist is the most frequent cause of damage to solid wood furniture. Keep your furniture away from fireplace, heater, humidifier or regular direct sunlight, Use table cloth, placemats, coasters to prevent heat or moist damage to wood surface from your dinnerware.

Quick Fix: 1) When encounter minor scratches or nicks, clean the area with dampen cloth and choose a best color matched furniture repair marker (available on online offline furniture retailers) to fill in damage mark. 2) To remove water rings caused by excess moisture travelling beyond the wood surface, try blow dry the area with medium (less than 160 degree) heat to draw out the moist. You could also try water mark remover product that is available in the market.

2) How to take care of your rattan furniture?

Rattan, a naturally fast growing renewable palm, mainly found in South and Southeast Asia, brings an inherent sense of relaxation and romance. The skin of it, often called “cane”, could be woven into dazzling refined patterns. The main porous reed has the precious flexibility and sturdiness of steel and plastic making it a perfect material for creative furniture designs. Our rattan furniture have a protective lacquer coating, so daily maintenance is simple.

Clean：Cleaning method is similar to that of solid wood. Use wool dusters or soft hand brush to remove dirt, then wipe clean with slightly water dampen cloth and finish with another clean dry cloth. Dip cloth into soap water instead of water to remove grease. Do not use harsh chemicals or rinse your rattan directly with running water. A weekly basic cleaning is recommended.

Protect: Similar to solid wood, heat and moist is the most frequent cause of damage to solid wood furniture. Keep your furniture away from fireplace, heater, humidifier or regular direct sunlight, We also recommend an annual polish up of your indoor or outdoor rattan furniture with some garden furniture wax paste.

Quick fix: When encounter minor cracks and splitting, which could happen after years of exposure, rub some boiled lindseed oil over the cracked area and remove any remnants. If you feel the lacquer or varnish finish is worn, scuff sand the piece using a fine-grit sandpaper or liquid sander and repaint or varnish with your favorite color.

3) How to take care of your faux leather furniture?

We choose top-tier microfiber synthetic vegan substitute (solvent free microfiber vegan leather) over real leather for its eco-friendly nature, on the contrary, majority of real leather processing generate pollutants such as emission of VOC, Ammonia and sulfides into air and water. Microfiber vegan leather not only look and feel just like real leather but also provides favorable qualities such as anti-bacteria, odour free, water repellency, abrasion resistance. Here is a quick guide on how to keep your microfiber leather furniture as stunning as day one.

Clean: Regular sweep with soft dry cloth could effectively prevent build-ups of dirt and help retain the gloss of leather. Leather cleaner wipes is also a convenient option.

Protect: Applying some natural cream or wax or baby oil effectively adds a layer of moist and dirt resistance and polish the vegan leather finishing. You could also use vegan leather conditioner as a lotion for your vegan leather to forestall chipping and wrinkling. Simply spot a bit of conditioner on a soft cloth and rub tenderly into the surface and air it out for a few minutes.

Quick fix: Cracking and peeling could be prevented by avoiding direct or long time exposure in sunlight. Water damage and stains are the most common unavoidable issues you that you would face. Ink from printings or bright/dark color from denim could easily penetrate through leather surface, in case it happens, wipe immediately with baby wipes before it becomes permanent. Do not use coarse cleaning tools such as steel wool to rub leather, If the surface got wet, do not blow it with a hairdryer but absorb as much moisture with a dry clean fiber cloth and leave it to air dry and condition it afterwards.

4) How to take care of natural fiber such as jute and water hyacinth?

We love biodegradable natural fibers as building material for accent furniture. Among many natural fibers, jute, sea grass, water hyacinth and wheat straw are our favorite. These plants are sustainable, fast growing easily cultivated crop with beautiful natural texture and its flexible and resilient fibers could be woven into all kinds of artistic patterns.

Clean: Never drench your natural fiber, as they absorb water quickly and could lead to permanent damage or stain if not blot clean immediately. Regular dust clean with a duster or dry soft cloth is recommended.

Protect: Keep away from moist. A small dose of fabric protectors could help prevent fibers from shedding prematurely, repel water to an extent and avoid growth of molds or unpleasant odor. Please do not use harsh chemical or over-apply protectors so that it does not discolor or stain the surface.

Quick fix: Some natural fibers like jute do shred and some such as sea grass don’t. The loosen fiber could be an allergen so do not choose a jute product if you have asthma or many allergies, choose sea grass instead. Natural fibers tend to develop a moldy smell if they are in moisty environment for too long. Dry baking soda is a perfect absorber, simply sprinkle some on the fiber and dust it off after an hour of so. Another simple method to remove odor is to leave it under the sun until all of the humidity has evaporated.
