Do not keep warm or cold items directly on surface. To protect from fading, avoid placing it next to windows or exposed to direct sunlight. Clean your items regularly, making sure to use a soft, lightly damp cloth and wiping gently. Using a rough rag and pressing it hard against the wood might lead to minor scratches. To protect your product from moisture, avoid placing it in direct contact with damp walls. We recommend wiping the moisture promptly with a dry, soft & lint free cloth.
