FURNITURE CARE FOR UPHOLSTERY
DON’T PLACE YOUR FURNITURE TOO CLOSE TO WINDOWS, HEATERS OR VENTS
If your furniture is located near a window, it’s best to use window treatments to avoid fading. Heating and air outlets will also fade fabrics and leather, as well as damage the fibers over an extended period of time.
ROTATE AND FLUFF SEAT AND BACK CUSHIONS REGULARLY
This will prevent the cushion core from wearing prematurely, will preserve the fabric color and control welt slippage.
FABRIC: NEVER TAKE THE CUSHION COVER OFF TO CLEAN
To clean a spill, immediately blot (without rubbing) with a dry, absorbent white cloth. Only use a professional furniture cleaning service when an overall cleaning is needed.
LEATHER: CLEAN WITH A SOFT, DAMP CLOTH
After wiping clean, gently rub with a soft dry cloth to restore the finish. Never use polishes, oils, ammonia, cleaning fluids, solvents or detergents to clean leather upholstery. Professional cleaning is recommended.
