Our finishes are designed to enhance the beauty of the wood and to offer some protection. However, your Willow Creek & Co furniture is still a natural wood product and, even in the most casual lifestyle, will require certain precautions to prolong its beauty.
Take Simple Precautions
Avoid Plastics/Rubber/Nylon
(Note: These precautions do not apply to items with performance finishes. See "allow wood to breathe" for more information.)
Avoid leaving plastic tablecloths and placemats on wood surfaces for extended periods of time. Chemicals in the synthetic components can damage finishes.
Affix felt discs on the contact points of computer equipment, alarm clocks, lamps, telephones, and other desktop items. The plastic, rubber, or nylon feet on these items may contain chemicals that can migrate into the finish, causing indentations, softening and discoloration. Even plastic toys left on unprotected shelves for extended periods can cause damage to the finish.
If damage occurs, seek the expertise of a furniture repair specialist.
Allow the Wood to Breathe
The fine finish on your wood furniture needs to “breathe” to maintain its appearance and durability. It should have exposure to the air, rather than being covered for extended periods of time. Please take the
following precautions:
