How to Care for Rattan, Fabric and Steel
Crafted to last, our curated collection of dining chairs has been intentionally selected to tell the story of craft and longevity. Below are a few guidelines to ensure your piece retains its inert characteristics and continues to tell the story of your home:
Routine Maintenance of Rattan
- Gently wipe with a clean, dry cloth to remove dust and surface dirt.
- For corners and crevices, use a soft brush or a vacuum with a brush attachment.
- Wipe spills immediately and dry the surface thoroughly with a clean, dry cloth.
- Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and heat, as this can cause discolouration and brittleness.
- Keep away from rain and excessive moisture, which may cause warping and staining.
- If used outdoors, rattan furniture must be placed under cover in a sheltered area.
Spot Treatment
- For light stains, wipe gently with a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately.
- Avoid soaking the material or using excessive water.
- Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or scrubbing pads.
- If cracks appear over time, apply a small amount of linseed oil with a soft cloth to help rehydrate the material. Allow it to absorb fully and wipe away any excess.
Routine Maintenance of Fabric
- Dust or lightly vacuum regularly to prevent damage.
- Dress seams to keep them aligned and neat.
- Apply Fabritect for invisible, protective coating against spills and soils.
- Consider annual professional cleaning for optimal maintenance.
Spot Treatment
- Immediately blot spills. Avoid rubbing and use recommended cleaners.
- Use a slightly damp cloth for cleaning and avoid harsh detergents.
Routine Maintenance of Steel
- Dust regularly and do not rub, scratch or scour.
- Wash the surface with warm, soapy water and a lint-free cloth or soft sponge. If the product is in a seawater environment, do this weekly as salt deposits can damage the finish.
- Avoid letting water stand on the surface of your furniture.
Important to Note
Inherent variations in the fibre, as well as subtle differences from the hand-weaving process, are natural characteristics of loom. These variations are celebrated, as each piece is unique and no two items are the same. Steel can rust if the powder coating has been damaged or chipped.
