Wooden Slice – Handcrafted Solid Wood Furniture Care Tips

With the right care, your handcrafted solid wood furniture can maintain its beauty and durability for generations. At Wooden Slice, we believe in helping you preserve the natural charm and elegance of your Sheesham wood furniture, Mango wood furniture, and other handcrafted wooden décor. Follow these simple yet essential maintenance tips to ensure your pieces stay timeless.

🧼 1. Daily Protection & Surface Care

  • Gently dust your wooden furniture using a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive fabrics or excessive pressure, as they may leave micro-scratches on the wood surface.

  • Clean spills immediately to prevent long-term stains and warping.

☀️ 2. Light & Heat Exposure

  • Keep your solid wood furniture away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature sources. Prolonged exposure to sunlight can lead to fading, drying, and discoloration.

  • Avoid placing hot items, irons, or burning candles directly on the furniture. Always use candle holders and trivets to prevent heat damage or melted wax stains.

💧 3. Humidity Control

  • Wood is a living material and can expand or contract with moisture changes. Protect your furniture by keeping it in climate-controlled environments to avoid warping or cracking.

  • Avoid placing furniture near humidifiers, radiators, or air vents. Use a dehumidifier in high-humidity areas.

🍷 4. Spills, Liquids & Food

  • Use coasters, mats, and trays to protect your furniture from food, drinks, and hot dishes.

  • If any liquid spills on the surface, wipe it immediately using a clean towel or sponge. Prolonged contact with moisture can cause stains or damage the wood’s natural finish.

🧴 5. Avoid Harsh Chemicals

  • Do not use bleach, harsh cleaners, or chemical-based sprays on your handcrafted furniture. These can erode the natural wood polish and diminish the durability of the piece.

  • Never apply polyurethane paint or varnish unless advised by a professional, as it may interfere with the natural oil finish.

 

🌿 6. Long-Term Furniture Preservation

  • Reapply natural wood oil or wax polish periodically to maintain moisture levels and enhance the natural texture and grain of your Sheesham or Mango wood furniture.

  • Rotate décor items and cushions to prevent uneven wear and fading in specific areas.

✔️ Final Tips

  • Always lift furniture when moving—never drag it across the floor.

  • Use furniture leg protectors or pads to avoid floor scratches.

  • Keep your pieces well-ventilated and dust-free for a clean and fresh look year-round.

By following these expert care instructions, you’ll preserve the beauty, strength, and craftsmanship of your handcrafted wooden furniture from Wooden Slice. Each piece you own is a reflection of timeless artistry — and with the right maintenance, it will continue to enrich your home for decades.
