Care & Maintenance
Solid oak is made to live with. With a few simple habits, your furniture will keep its natural character and beauty for years to come.
EVERYDAY CARE
Simple habits make the difference.
Clean spills promptly
Wipe up spills with a soft cloth and avoid leaving moisture on the surface for extended periods.
Use coasters and placemats
Protect the surface from hot, wet or sharp objects and avoid placing very hot items directly on the wood.
Clean gently
For everyday cleaning, use a soft dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals and soaking the surface.
Keep conditions stable
Solid wood naturally responds to changes in temperature and humidity. Avoid placing furniture directly beside strong heat sources or in persistently damp environments.

MADE TO AGE WELL
A finish you can maintain.
Our furniture is finished with Osmo hardwax oil, which protects the wood while preserving its natural look and feel. Unlike many sealed industrial finishes, an oiled surface can be maintained and refreshed over time.
For refinishing or repairing a specific area, contact us before applying any product. We'll help you choose the appropriate treatment for your finish.

NATURAL SOLID OAK
No two pieces are exactly alike.
Grain pattern, texture, knots and subtle variations in tone are natural characteristics of solid oak — not defects. Over time, the wood may also develop a richer tone and character as it responds to light and everyday use.
