Care
Each piece is unique, and proper care will help preserve its beauty for years to come.
Handle with care and keep away from excessive moisture, heat, and direct sunlight. Clean gently with a soft, dry or lightly damp cloth as appropriate for the material, and avoid harsh or abrasive cleaners unless specifically recommended for the item.
For vintage and antique pieces, expect some natural signs of age and character. These are part of what makes each piece special.
When in doubt, less is more - gentle handling and thoughtful care are always best.
