Chocolate Oak

Working with natural materials means that color tones and grain markings will differ from sample to sample and from one finished piece to the next. Every item is uniquely its own—one of the qualities we love most. Over time, aging and exposure to light may subtly shift the appearance of your furniture.

Because solid wood is an active, natural material, it reacts to its surroundings—particularly shifts in temperature and humidity. Minor surface checks can occur and are considered normal. Keeping your space at a steady humidity level helps minimize movement or warping. For everyday upkeep, dust regularly and wipe with a lightly dampened microfiber cloth. Kindly avoid harsh chemicals, bleaches, degreasers, or other heavy duty cleaners. To further preserve your piece, use coasters, placemats, and felt pads. For yearly maintenance, a rehydrating furniture oil can revive the luster of your wood finish, we recommend Brunel’s Furniture Butter.
