Wipe up spills right away, and clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid making direct contact with acidic liquids (such as soda, fruit juice or vinegar) and bleach-based cleaning products, as they may affect the finish and create permanent stains. Use coasters and trivets under hot or wet items, as they may leave marks on the surface.

Solid wood is a natural material that responds to changes in humidity and temperature. Some seasonal expansion and contraction is normal, and you may notice slight movement over time. Keeping your piece out of prolonged direct sun and extreme humidity, and away from heat sources, helps minimize movement and reduce the chance of cracking.

Yes. Solid wood can be refinished whenever you want to reset its look, whether that’s after years of daily use or a scratch you’d rather smooth over. It’s built to be renewed, not replaced. Depending on the finish, we recommend having it done by a professional furniture refinisher, especially on lacquered pieces.

Because solid wood is a natural material, it has variation in grain and tone, meaning no two pieces are exactly alike. You may notice this variation from one piece to the next, or even across the same tabletop. Knots, grain and tone are what make each piece one of a kind.

Solid wood doesn’t wear out, it wears in. That means the marks of everyday life become part of the piece’s character, with scuffs and dents telling its story. If you’d like a reset down the line, solid wood can be refinished. Depending on the finish, we recommend working with a professional. Built well and cared for properly, a solid wood piece is made to last for decades.

Solid wood means real hardwood is used throughout the piece, so it’s strong, substantial, and wears in beautifully, with natural character that develops over time. It’s a long-lasting material that can be refinished over the years, and last for decades. Veneer is a thin layer of real wood over plywood or MDF. Engineered wood is manufactured wood like MDF or particleboard. While both are useful in certain areas of furniture, it doesn’t age or refinish the same way as real wood does. For us, we prioritize using solid hardwood anywhere a piece takes daily wear.

We build our solid wood pieces from American Oak, American Walnut and French Ash. Each is chosen from the region that grows it best, and solid wood is used throughout the piece, not just on the surface.
