Care and Maintenance
Keep out of direct sunlight to prevent colour fade and dust regularly. A simple damp cloth will suffice for cleaning, avoid harsh chemicals. It’s excellent workability is attributed being softer than similar high end joinery timbers so take care not to mark or scratch it. Clear coats are usually used for protection to allow the cherry to naturally deepen to a darker bronzed red.
