THE IMPERFECT BEAUTY OF WOOD

Modern technology has improved much in the way wood is produced. Modern glue is less susceptible to drying up, modern finishes leave greater resistance to marking and expensive carved mouldings can be produced for a fraction on the price. The one thing modern technology hasn't improved is wood. But then again what's to improve? For hundreds of years, the pure beauty of wood furniture has made for treasured family traditions. Although wood has its beauty, it is far from perfect. It's the nature of wood to have knots, mineral deposits, worm holes and unusual grain patterns. Each piece is as individual as a fingerprint and will take the stain slightly different, even two boards from the same tree. This is inherent to wood and is not a defect unless it interferes with the product giving satisfactory service. You may notice a gap in the center of leaf tables or at the ends where half tops and filler leaves meet. Solid wood will expand and contract due to humidity conditions in the home. The extent of the gapping will vary as humidity conditions change. Expansion and contraction causes these gaps and is a natural characteristic of solid wood.

THE IMPERFECT BEAUTY OF LEATHER

Genuine Leather is warm and inviting and is one of the few materials that actually get better with age. Continued use only makes is more comfortable. But we have something to tell you about the most beautiful and durable of materials. Nature loves to be creative and as a result no two pieces of leather are identical. Even the same hide has shade differences due to higher or lower density of the nicks, branding, scratches and even insect bites. These give each piece of leather a personality of its own. Only true leather can boast these marks and they are not considered cause for warranty claim.

FURNITURE CARE TIPS

WOOD FURNITURE

Dust regularly with a dry cloth or one slightly moistened with a natural polish. Avoid polishes containing petroleum products since they may damage the finish. Even dust may be abrasive so always dust with the grain and not across it. Avoid putting furniture in direct sunlight since this may bleach the finish. Commercial glass cleaners may discolour brass or chrome finishes. Be sure to always use felt discs, placemats (without rubber backing), coaster etc. when putting lamps, glasses, hot objects etc. on table tops. Despite modern water resistant finishes it is very important that water not be allowed to stand on top of finishes or in decorative router lines. When storing table leaves, always be flat, beneath a bed or somewhere out of the way. Standing on edge will cause warpage. Maintaining even humidity conditions is extremely beneficial to all furniture with wood construction. Operating a humidifier in your home is highly recommended. All wood grains absorb stains differently, inch by inch; there will always be varying degrees of light and dark tones throughout. This is a characteristic which makes your piece beautifully unique. Tilting back in chairs while sitting in them is dangerous and will loosen the glue joints. This practice should be strictly discouraged. Also avoid standing on chairs or hooking your heels on the cross supports of the chair base. Remember, decorative wood spindles are fragile and will break if subjected to undue stress.

UPHOLSTERY

Vacuum with soft brush attachments to remove dirt and dust that can cut threads or ware fibers. We strongly suggest you have your upholstery treated with stain repellent. This will allow the fabric to be cleaned much more effectively, therefore extending its life. Spills should be repeatedly blotted with a clean, dry cloth or paper towel. If a stain should occur, test for colour fastness by wiping a small hidden area with a mild soap solution before attempting to remove the stain. All seat cushions should be turned and rotated (if reversible) after every vacuuming (at least every few weeks,). This will help stop your cushions from twisting and provide even wear. If twisting does occur, simply open at the zipper and pull the fabric around by hand. Zippers are there for ease of assembly by the manufacturer. Do not attempt to remove cover to try the machine wash. Occasionally a seat cushion may appear to be a different shade than the rest of the piece. Simply turn the cushion over and the nap (fabric fibers) will be laying the other direction.

MATTRESS SLEEP SETS

It is recommended and a requirement of the manufacturer’s warranty that queen size mattress sets have a bed frame that has cross supports and a center support to avoid sagging of foundation. Never bend, fold or stand on your mattress. A washable mattresses protector should always be used, for health reasons and to protect your bedding warranty. We recommend the purchase of a stain repellent mattress pad cover.
