With proper care, your solid wood furniture and décor from Lixora Furniture can stay beautiful and functional for years — even generations. Follow these simple guidelines to maintain the natural elegance and durability of your pieces.

Daily Use

• Use a tablecloth or thick protective mat on dining tables and other surfaces that see frequent or heavy use.
• Clean your furniture regularly with a soft, lightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive materials or scrubbing hard, as this can cause scratches and damage the finish.

Heat & Fire Hazards

• Do not place burning candles, irons, or other heat sources directly on wood surfaces. Use candle holders to prevent wax spills and protect your furniture’s finish from heat-related damage.

Light & Temperature

• Keep your furniture away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature fluctuations. Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause fading, so avoid placing items near windows or in areas with intense light.

Humidity

• Solid wood naturally expands and contracts with moisture. Avoid exposing your furniture to high humidity or rapid changes in temperature, which may cause cracking or warping.

Spills & Liquids

• Use mats, coasters, and placemats to protect surfaces from food and beverage spills. Avoid placing hot items directly on the furniture. In case of spills, wipe the area immediately with a soft cloth to prevent stains or damage.

Chemicals

• Avoid contact with harsh chemicals, cleaning agents, or solvents, as they can strip away the wood’s natural finish. Do not apply polyurethane or other paints not recommended by our care instructions.

Scratches, Burns & Surface Repairs

• Minor scratches, burns, or residue can be gently removed using fine-grit sandpaper. After sanding, reapply mineral oil to restore the surface and maintain its natural look.
