Care Instructions
To care for and preserve the finish on your new Copeland Furniture piece, please keep the following
recommendations in mind.
While our furniture has been finished with a durable top coat, the surface may be sensitive to
dents and abrasions during the first 30 days in your home.
Treat the surface finish gently so it does not dent or chip. Tape or stickers should not be put on
the finish.
For general care use a soft cloth to dust the furniture.
Use damp cloth with a mild soap to clean-up spills or dirt. Dry the surface thoroughly.
Please do not use any polishes, waxes or solvents to clean the surface of the furniture. This
holds true for new Copeland Furniture pieces as well as items you may already have in your
home.
Please do not place any candles directly on the surface of your furniture. The perfumes and
dyes in the candles may penetrate the finish.
Beds must be disassembled before moving to avoid damage. Never attempt to move the bed
while it is assembled.
Special Care Instructions for Cherry Furniture
Furniture crafted from cherry wood darkens with age. This change in color, from a reddish tan to a reddish
brown, results from the natural oxidation of the wood when it is exposed to light. Objects left on a piece of
cherry furniture for an extended period will retard this oxidation process and when removed, may leave a lighter
colored outline of the object on the surface. With continued exposure to light, this color difference will eventually
disappear and the wood will reach a mature even tone.
