WOOD

For solid or veneered wood, the following is necessary:

- Regular cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth. If necessary, use a cloth slightly dampened with warm water.
- Hydration: Every year, apply natural wax or wood oil to nourish and protect the surface.
- Protection: avoid direct sun exposure, prolonged contact with moisture, and do not use abrasive products or silicones.
- Spills: If it gets wet, dry it immediately to avoid watermarks.

FUR

For natural or aging skin, the following is necessary:

- Gentle cleaning: Use a dry or slightly damp cloth. For light dirt, you can use diluted neutral soap.
- Hydration: once a year, apply a specific leather conditioner.
- Precautions: avoid direct exposure to heat sources and prolonged sunlight.

PAINTED SURFACES

- Cleaning: simply wipe with a damp cloth and water. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
- Protection: Although the paints used are of high quality, avoid impacts, constant humidity or intense rubbing that may affect the finish.
- Daily use: if you see any stains, clean them up soon to prevent them from sticking.

RATTAN, BAMBOO AND NATURAL FIBERS

- Cleaning: Use a soft bristle brush or vacuum cleaner with a nozzle to remove dust between the weaves.
- Hydration: For rattan or natural bamboo, you can apply raw linseed oil occasionally.
- Precautions: Do not expose to direct sunlight or very humid environments. Spilled liquids should be dried immediately.
- Stains: Food, inks or sugary drinks can leave permanent marks if not cleaned immediately.

MARBLE

- Cleaning: Use pH neutral cleaners and soft cloths.
- Protection: Apply stone sealant periodically (ideally every 6 to 12 months).
- Spills: Clean up liquids immediately, especially acids (lemon, vinegar, wine) to prevent corrosion or stains.
- Restoration: In case of scratches or loss of shine, go to a professional for polishing.
