Care for your furniture:

FURNITURE CARE:

Look after your furniture! Timber is natural resource and needs some maintenance. Any imperfections are an integral part of the unique handcrafted quality. Remember timber is grown and not man-made, so there will be movement in your piece. Please note that movement in your furniture is not a fault, it is a normal occurrence with this material, in certain conditions even aged /antique pieces can experience movement. 

FURNITURE FOOD:

We suggest frequent applications of beeswax or quality furniture oil to enhance the rich patina of the timbers. This is extremely important to the longevity of your newly purchased piece. Specifically we would suggest a full wax every 3 months, with fortnightly applications of liquid wax.

Fire / Radiators:

Look after your wood

Where possible avoid placing your Ethnic Mood furniture's in front of or direct near of heat. Wood is a natural product and whilst and our teak is well seasoned any change in temperature will caused the wood to shrink or expend.   

Please always use placemats and coasters and avoid placing hot cups and plates directly onto the wood surface as it will result in a chalky white ring.

Polish:

Our teak products

Day to day, our furniture can simply be wiped clean with a duster. However, for table tops that will endure heavier use, we recommend applying a small amount of Beeswax polish. This should be rubbed onto the wood with a duster and buffed to a gorgeous shine, These layers of polish will nourish and maintain your furniture for years to come.

Our Ethnic Moods Teak Dye has proved enormously useful for the occasional scratch or bump your furniture might received when moving or using. Simply dab a small mount of the stain on the scratched area to regain the lovely dark teak finish. Please be aware that this is a stain and is not recommended on cream carpets or whilst wearing white shirts!
