Metals:
Most metal pieces are delivered with a living finish unless specified differently. The live finishes are designed to naturally patina over time.

• Maintenance (live and lacquered finishes):
-Clean with a soft, lint-free cloth, slightly damp cloth.
-Do not use commercial or heavy-duty polishes or waxes as they may scratch or damage the finish.

• Restoration:
To restore a polished finish on an item with a live or non-live finish, we recommend that they be professionally cleaned and polished.

Woods:
Wood pieces have been stained and/or polished to bring depth and beauty to each finish. Although most are protected with either a clear coat or wax, they are still susceptible to wear.

• Maintenance:
-Care for your wood pieces by dusting regularly with a soft cloth.
-Do not use aerosol, commercial, or heavy-duty polishes or waxes, as they can yellow light finishes.

Important Environmental Information:
-Do not place/leave hot or moist objects directly on wood surfaces. Rubber or plastic left on the wood finish can damage the finish.
-Do not place wood items near heaters, air conditioning units, or in direct sunlight to prevent over-drying and fading.
-Avoid extreme humidity changes in your home, as this can cause wood to expand and contract, and can cause damage.
-Maintain humidity levels between 35-45%, as extremely dry air can cause wood to crack.
-Exposing wood to extreme moisture can also cause swelling and warping.

• Restoration: We recommend that deeply stained or soiled wood pieces be professionally cleaned or refinished.
