Maintenance Guide

At Amvisant, we believe in the quality and durability of our furniture. To ensure your pieces remain beautiful and functional for years to come, we recommend following these care and maintenance guidelines.
General Care Tips

1. Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading and discoloration of fabrics, leather, and wood finishes. Position furniture away from windows or use window treatments to limit exposure.

2. Maintain Humidity Levels: Fluctuating humidity can cause wood to crack or warp. Use a humidifier or dehumidifier as needed to maintain a stable indoor environment.

3. Use Protective Pads: Place felt pads under legs of chairs and tables to prevent scratches on flooring and surfaces.

4. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or oils not specifically designed for furniture care. These can damage finishes and materials.

5. Regular Cleaning: Dust furniture regularly using a soft, dry cloth. For deeper cleaning, follow the specific guidelines for different materials below.
Upholstered Furniture
1. Vacuum Regularly: Use a vacuum with a soft brush attachment to remove dust and debris from upholstered surfaces. Pay attention to crevices and seams.
2. Spot Cleaning: Blot spills immediately with a clean, absorbent cloth. Avoid rubbing, which can spread the stain. Use a mild, fabric-safe cleaner according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
3. Professional Cleaning: Periodically, have upholstered furniture professionally cleaned to maintain its appearance and hygiene.
4. Avoid Sunlight: Keep upholstered furniture out of direct sunlight to prevent fading.
Leather Furniture
1. Dust and Wipe: Regularly dust leather surfaces with a soft, dry cloth. For a deeper clean, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid soaking the leather.
2. Conditioning: Use a leather conditioner every 6-12 months to maintain softness and prevent cracking.
3. Spill Management: Blot spills immediately with a dry cloth. Avoid using water on oil-based stains; consult a professional cleaner instead.
4. Avoid Heat: Keep leather furniture away from heat sources such as radiators or fireplaces, as heat can dry out and damage the leather.
Wooden Furniture
1. Dust Regularly: Use a soft, lint-free cloth to dust wooden surfaces. For a deeper clean, use a damp cloth and a mild wood cleaner.
2. Polishing: Apply a quality furniture polish periodically to maintain shine and protect the finish. Avoid wax-based polishes as they can build up over time.
3. Avoid Moisture: Wipe up spills immediately to prevent moisture from damaging the wood. Use coasters and placemats to protect the surface from heat and moisture.
4. Reposition Objects: Occasionally move decorative items placed on wooden surfaces to avoid discoloration and uneven fading.

Glass and Metal Furniture

1. Glass Surfaces: Clean glass surfaces with a glass cleaner and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that can scratch the glass.
2. Metal Frames: Wipe down metal parts with a damp cloth. For polished or chrome finishes, use a metal polish to maintain shine.
3. Avoid Corrosion: Keep metal furniture dry and avoid exposure to saltwater or chemicals that can cause corrosion.

Outdoor Furniture

1. Cover or Store: When not in use, cover outdoor furniture or store it indoors to protect it from the elements.
2. Clean Regularly: Clean outdoor furniture with water and a mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry.
3. Protective Coatings: Apply protective coatings to metal or wood outdoor furniture to prevent rust or weathering.

Additional Tips

1. Rotating Cushions: Regularly rotate and flip cushions to ensure even wear and maintain their shape.
2. Avoid Sharp Objects: Keep sharp objects away from upholstered and leather surfaces to prevent cuts and tears.
3. Use Furniture Covers: For additional protection, consider using furniture covers, especially for valuable or delicate pieces.
