How do I take care of my Mid Century Teak furniture?

It’s so beautiful! How do I keep it looking great?

Here’s how

1. Cleaning Instructions

Regularly dust your teak furniture with a soft, dry cloth to remove surface dirt and prevent scratches.

Use a damp soft cloth or sponge, wipe down the furniture, and then dry it with a clean towel. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

2. Maintenance instructions

To maintain the rich colour of teak and protect it from drying out, apply teak or danish oil every few months.

   - Clean the surface thoroughly and let it dry.

   - Apply a thin, even coat of danish or teak oil with a soft cloth, following the grain of the wood.

   - Let the oil soak in for about 15 minutes, then wipe off any excess with a clean cloth.

   - Allow the furniture to dry completely before use

3. Daily use tips

Always use coasters, placemats, and trivets to protect the surface from heat, moisture, and spills. This will prevent rings and stains from forming on the wood.

Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause teak to fade and dry out.

Teak furniture thrives in environments with stable humidity levels. Excessive dryness can cause the wood to crack, while excessive humidity can lead to swelling.
