Care & Maintenance

Our furniture is finished with a satin hard wax oil that protects the wood while allowing it to breathe and age naturally. This finish provides strong everyday protection while also allowing for simple spot repairs and long-term renewal when needed.

Routine Care

  • Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth

  • Clean as needed using a slightly damp (not wet) cloth

  • Avoid harsh cleaners, ammonia, or abrasive products

  • For deeper cleaning, use a wood cleaner designed for hardwax oil finishes (such as Osmo Wash & Care)

Spill Protection

  • Wipe up spills promptly to prevent moisture absorption

  • Do not allow standing water or wet items to remain on the surface

  • Use coasters and placemats whenever possible

Long-Term Maintenance

Over time, high-contact surfaces may benefit from a light maintenance application.

  • Apply a thin coat of a compatible product such as Osmo Polyx® Oil or Osmo Liquid Wax Cleaner as needed

  • Light sanding is typically not required for maintenance coats

  • This process helps restore sheen, protection, and surface uniformity

Environmental Considerations

  • Use trivets, coasters, and protective pads to guard against heat and moisture

  • Avoid prolonged direct sunlight when possible, as natural wood will gradually patinate and change color over time

  • Wood is a living material and will respond to its environment—this natural aging is part of its character

One of the key advantages of a hardwax oil finish is its renewability. Unlike film finishes, it can be refreshed and spot-repaired without refinishing the entire piece, helping extend the life of your furniture for decades.
