Wood is a living, noble material that adds a warm, authentic touch to your home. It is essential to know how to look after your wooden furniture so that it retains its shine and beauty over time. However, maintenance varies depending on whether your furniture is made from varnished wood or untreated wood. Follow our advice to save time and money and preserve the elegance of your furniture.
Nothing could be easier! Simply wipe your furniture with a microfibre cloth to remove dust and other deposits that could clog it up.
For more advanced (annual) maintenance, you can clean it by scrubbing the surface with a brush soaked in black soap diluted in hot water (wring out the brush well before use).

Warning: Never use liquids to clean your unfinished furniture, as without protection, the wood will absorb the liquid and leave a whitish stain, including water and other abrasive products.
Unfinished wooden furniture has not been varnished, painted, waxed or oiled. Keeping the wood natural gives it a beautiful appearance, but it is not protected against external risks (marks, stains, dust), which is why cleaning this type of furniture is restrictive because a piece of furniture in untreated wood is more vulnerable.
For effective cleaning, use a slightly damp sponge, then wipe immediately with a soft, dry cloth to avoid any traces of moisture. It's important not to rub too hard; instead, use gentle strokes or dab the surface lightly.
There's no need to buy expensive special products; a little washing-up liquid diluted with water is all that's needed if the furniture is particularly dirty. Be careful, however, to wring out your sponge well to avoid any water infiltration that could damage the varnish.
Warning: Never use abrasive sponges to clean your varnished wooden furniture, as they may scratch the varnish. Also, do not use abrasive products such as bleach or acid.
You only need 3 tools: an iron, a cloth or paper towel and water.
