At Archiwood, we believe wooden furniture is more than a functional item—it’s an investment in timeless beauty and quality craftsmanship. Proper care ensures your wooden pieces, including our handmade medicine cabinets, remain stunning for years to come. Here’s a comprehensive guide to maintaining your wooden furniture.

Regular Cleaning

Dust and debris can dull the natural beauty of wood over time.

  • Use a soft, dry cloth to dust your furniture weekly.
  • For deeper cleaning, opt for a mild wood cleaner diluted with water. Avoid harsh chemicals that can strip the wood’s finish.

Protecting Against Damage

Wood is a natural material that reacts to its environment.

  • Avoid direct sunlight: Prolonged exposure can cause fading or warping. Position your furniture away from windows or use UV-blocking curtains.
  • Prevent moisture damage: Use coasters and avoid placing wet items directly on the wood.

Seasonal Care

Wood expands and contracts with changes in humidity.

  • In winter, use a humidifier to prevent cracking.
  • In summer, keep rooms well-ventilated to avoid swelling.

Deep Maintenance

Every few months, refresh your wooden furniture.

  • Apply a high-quality furniture polish or natural oil to restore shine and protect the surface.
  • Repair minor scratches with a matching wood filler or a touch-up pen.

By following these tips, your Archiwood furniture will retain its elegance and durability for decades to come.
