Product Care

 

At Grain & Grid, we believe furniture should be a lifelong companion. While our pieces are built with structural integrity and precision, the natural materials we use are living things that respond to their environment. To preserve the character of the wood and the crisp lines of the design, a little regular care goes a long way.

Preserving Your Grain & Grid Pieces

  • Routine Dusting: Use a clean, lint-free, soft dry cloth to remove dust regularly. This prevents buildup that can dull the natural luster of the wood grain.

  • Climate & Light Control: Protect your furniture from prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and extreme temperature fluctuations. Excessive heat or UV rays can cause the wood to fade or develop structural cracks over time.

  • Annual Nourishment: To maintain the wood's resilience, reapply a high-quality natural furniture wax once a year. Use a soft cloth for application, allow the wax to penetrate for one hour, and then gently buff away any excess with a clean towel for a seamless finish.

  • Immediate Moisture Care: Accidental spills should be blotted immediately using a soft, dry towel. Avoid letting liquids sit on the surface, as moisture can permeate the finish and leave permanent marks.

  • Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Steer clear of "all-purpose" household cleaners or abrasive sprays. These contain chemicals that can strip the protective finish and damage the organic integrity of the wood.
