Product Care

Solid Wood 

For long term maintenance of any solid wood product we recommend that there are no direct sources of heat very close by.   Wood is a natural product and whilst Puji only use timber that is well seasoned and dried, movement can occur in the home.  Changing temperatures can cause the wood to shrink or expand.  Placing a piece of furniture up against a radiator will exaggerate this and may cause movement and in some cases slight cracking. 

On a daily basis the furniture will not require much maintenance apart from dry dusting.  We recommend that once a month you apply good quality beeswax or oil depending on your finish to keep the furniture well nourished and safeguard against shrinkage.  Rub in and buff to a shine.  We advise you to avoid using spray based cleaning products and abrasive products.  If in doubt about the finish of your product please contact the store before applying any product.  Hot and wet sources placed directly on the products surface may also cause damage and chalky white markings which can be avoided by the use of placemats and coasters. 

Great care should be taken when using solvents such as alcohol, nail polish remover, perfume/cologne, or any other toxic chemical around your furniture.  Nail polish remover is nothing more than liquid paint/finish remover in a small bottle, and will remove finish in an instant.  An investment in fine furniture can turn into a nightmare in a short time if the wrong liquid is spilled, or any other spill is not taken care of promptly.  On the other hand, it can be an investment that will bring you enjoyment for years to come if cared for properly.

Cane and Rattan 

Regular gentle cleaning of cane, wicker and rattan furniture is essential to maintain its lasting durability.   We recommend adding a small amount of detergent in to a bowl of warm water, than dip a soft-bristled brush into the solution and carefully work over the piece.   The piece should then be dried off using a soft cloth.

The biggest enemy of cane and rattan is dehydration this can be avoided by simply misting the panels with plain water from a spray bottle once a month.  If the surrounding wood gets splashed it should be wiped dry with a soft cloth.

Organic Cotton Bedding Ranges

We recommend washing at 30 degress as this is good for the long term-care of the bedding and better for the environment.  As the bedding has not been treated with any dyes or bleaching agents, it may whiten over time.  This is due to the bleaching agents contained in washing powders.
