PRODUCT CARE & HANDLING
Furniture lasts longer and performs better when preventive maintenance is practiced. Furniture in daily use is exposed to various elements such as body oils, perspiration, general wear, and color transfer from clothing.
It is important to keep the space in which your furniture is placed adequately humidified. Furniture does best in environments with moderate temperature and humidity. Therefore, your furniture should not sit near heating or air conditioning units or registers. These can remove necessary moisture from your furniture, dry it out, and may cause cracks or splits.
To minimize fading, avoid placing furniture in direct sunlight.

FABRIC
Fabric has natural wrinkles as well as color and texture variations. Fabric should be dusted regularly with a vacuum — avoid using chemical cleaners. Most importantly, remember to never rub a stain on fabric. Always dab it out with a slightly damp cloth.
CLEANING
– Be sure to vacuum weekly, so dust and dirt do not settle into the fabric.
CARE TIPS
– Avoid cleaners that use harmful chemicals. Many of these are harsh and are not safe for use on upholstery.
– Avoid stubborn stains and protect your upholstery by keeping household chemicals such as detergents, window cleaners, bleaches, nail polish, nail polish remover, glue, shoe polish, and paint away from your furniture.
– When stretched, the upholstery might not completely return to its original shape. Therefore, when fabric is used more intensively, it may become looser over time.
– If pillow cushions are sewn to the frame, any pulling or tugging might result in a tear. Please avoid any leaning, sitting, or reaching over the back of the sofa.
– To keep your cushions looking new, avoid sitting in one area and use seating areas evenly.
– Fabric is not resistant to animal stains. Allowing pets on your upholstered furniture is not recommended. Their claws may scratch the covers, which can lead to an expensive repair. In addition, their saliva is acidic and may also harm the upholstered finish.
LEATHER
Fabric has natural wrinkles as well as color and texture variations. Fabric should be dusted regularly with a vacuum — avoid using chemical cleaners. Most importantly, remember to never rub a stain on fabric. Always dab it out with a slightly damp cloth.
Please note that no two pieces of leather are the same; they all have different textures, tones, and backgrounds. There are three main characteristics or “blemishes” of natural leather: scratches, wrinkles, and scars.
SCRATCHES
– When the texture is smooth to the touch with a slight variation of color to the surrounding area of the dye.
WRINKLES
– When there are natural folds highlighting unique grain patterns and one-of-a-kind upholstered furniture is created.
HEALED SCARS
– Scratched and deeper rubs that create organic distinctively authentic character. These marks do not affect durability of the hide.
CLEANING
– Keep your leather fresh and moisturized using leather conditioners and/or wipes every few months.
– Avoid cleaners that use harmful chemical products. Many of these are harsh and not safe for use on leather.
– Avoid stubborn stains and protect your leather by not using household chemicals such as detergents, window cleaners, bleaches, nail polish, nail polish remover, glue, shoe polish, paint, and other corrosive materials.
– Leather is a natural product, and any stress will result in tears. Additionally, when stretched, the leather might not completely return to its original shape. Therefore, when leather is used more intensively, it may become looser over time.

– To keep your cushions looking full and new, avoid sitting in one area and use the seating areas evenly.
– Leather is not resistant to animal stains. Allowing pets on your leather furniture is not recommended. Their claws may scratch the covers, which can lead to an expensive repair. Their saliva is acidic and may also harm the leather.
WOOD
Wood is a natural product. Sun bleaching will occur when wood furniture is exposed to sunlight. This may cause darker finishes to lighten and sometimes cause lighter finishes to darken. For this reason, try to avoid placing furniture in direct sunlight and rearrange accessories from time to time to prevent spot bleaching.
For daily maintenance, use clean and soft cotton rags or cloths to wipe off dust on the surface along the grain. Never use damp rags and never use anything with a hard surface to rub onto the furniture. Always keep the surface clear of any acid or chemical substances.
To avoid any damages, defects, or issues from occurring, refrain from stacking large and/or heavy objects on top of the furniture.
