Wood furniture is loved for its beautiful colors and patterns, offering at least a bit of connection with Mother Nature. Additionally, quality wooden furniture can last for generations with an almost unchanged appearance. The price for this beauty is regular maintenance needs.
General Care
There are few rules, which can be applied to all kinds of wood furniture. The most important one is simple – wood hates humidity. Therefore, don’t use wet cloths to clean wood surfaces; instead use a soft cloth or vacuum cleaner with small brush. Immediately clean and dry all spills. Try to avoid placing the furniture in a room where the humidity is too high, too low, or the temperature changes too often; similarly, placing your prized antique table next to a heater is not the best idea.
