A soft, damp cloth is enough for everyday care. Wipe spills promptly and avoid aggressive or abrasive cleaners, as these may damage the finish. Keep the piece away from standing water or prolonged moisture and handle it gently to preserve its surface.

Solid oak is resilient but sensitive to extremes. Keep each piece at a comfortable distance from radiators, heaters or stoves to prevent drying or cracking. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight, which may cause uneven changes in colour.

Oak develops a gentle patina as it lives in your home. Small marks, changes in tone and natural grain variations are part of its character and don't affect durability. If an oiled surface becomes dry or matte over time, it can be refreshed with a light application of child-safe furniture oil.
