Care & Maintenance:

• Dust regularly using a soft, dry lint-free microfiber cloth.
• Wipe clean with a slightly damp cloth when required and dry immediately with a clean towel.
• Nourish the timber periodically with high-quality wood furniture oil or polish to preserve its natural luster.
• Avoid placing directly next to active heat sources or in prolonged, harsh sunlight to maintain timber moisture balance.
