Appearance Retention
All furniture will change in appearance over time, primarily due to environmental factors of dust, moisture, breeze, wind etc.
Colour Variation
It is normal for furniture & other products to show minor variation from the selling samples or minor variations between production runs. We seek to minimize potential for variance and ensure any variation is within recognized industry standards. Colour appearance can vary, depending on the type of light under which a sample is viewed and the light sources where the furniture & other products are installed. Viewing of the sample at your residence and under as many different light conditions as possible prior to making your final decision is recommended.

Care Tips
- Always - clean up spills and any standing water, such as condensation from a glass or bowl, immediately. Pay special attention to the areas around your sink, range, dishwasher, toe spaces and baseboards. Use a blotting action rather than a wiping action.
- Always apply cleaning products directly to the clean cloth you are using. Never apply directly to the surface of the area that you are cleaning.
- Always lift objects—do not drag across the surface.
- Always avoid extremes in room humidity. Too high or too low humidity can cause the wood to warp or the glue used in applying veneers to loosen.
- Always avoid extreme changes in room temperature.
- Always rotate accessories on furniture periodically so they do not sit in the same spot all the time.
- Always use pads, cloth or felt to protect surfaces from plastics, rubber, hot dishes, beverages, bookends, flowerpots and vases.
- Always use protective pads when writing with a ballpoint pen. Always make minor repairs while they are still small.
- Never apply a damp cloth to your cabinetry.
- Never apply excessive weight nor excessively pull down on doors as this may cause them to split at the hinge area and sag.
- Never place plastic or rubber objects on a wood finish—their ingredients react with those of the finish.
- Never place furniture in direct sunlight. Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may cause a change in color.
- Never attempt to repair badly damaged surfaces without the proper materials or professional help.
