Taking care of your furniture is easy.

If your items are finished with nitrocellulose lacquer it is sealed and moisture will not penetrate it, or escape from it. It is always good to clean your products using a cloth that has been moistened with furniture oil. Remember to wipe all the excess oil with a clean dry cloth seeing that the furniture item has been sealed and the oil will not penetrate into the timber. Please do not use a wax based product as this will lead to a wax build-up over time.

If your items are finished with Danish Oil the wood is not sealed and applying the oil is absolutely necessary as the wood has to be nourished. We will apply the first few coats. You will have to re-oil all the furniture items, including drawer bottoms and backboards of cabinets. Remember all our products are completely solid with no imitation material used. Oil the furniture once a week for the first six weeks, then once a month for the first six months and once a year thereafter. Ideally apply on a warm day so that the oil can penetrate to its maximum potential. Apply the Danish Oil using a cloth. Leave the oil on the furniture item for no longer than 15 minutes. Use a clean cloth and wipe all excess oil.

Danish Oil is a non-mineral drying oil which has a plant oil base, therefore excellent for nourishing solid wood. All our furniture is treated with fine quality oils. Your furniture should last you a lifetime and can easily be passed on to generations to come. It is therefore up to you to treat the furniture with care. Under no cirscumstances should the furniture items be cleaned with water, soap and other detergents - this will strip it of its protective oils.
