Finishes

To maintain the above finishes, regular dusting with a soft cloth and an occasional application of a good quality wax furniture polish will help prolong the life of the lacquer.
Lacquer Life: The life of lacquer is beyond our control and cannot be guaranteed.
However good the lacquer and however well applied, it remains a thin coat of protective material that will eventually break down, particularly when confronted with usage, atmospheric conditions or prolonged exterior exposure.

Special living finishes are designed to change with time. Over time the various finishes will wear through according to where they are positioned and how much use they get. Tones will develop in areas handled regularly and the product will develop its own character.
A light application of a good quality wax will assist in maintaining the finish in good condition.
