Safety Instructions
General warnings
Never drag furniture when moving it, always lift it. Periodically check all fixings to ensure none have come loose and
re-tighten where necessary. Please take care when handling or moving the furniture as careless handling may cause
damage or injury. Furniture can be dangerous if incorrectly installed. Assembly should be carried out by a competent
person. No liability will be accepted for damage or injury caused by incorrectly installed or assembled furniture.
Specific warnings for heavy items
It is recommended that before moving heavy objects to a new location they are completely dis-assembled to avoid
personal injury or damage to the furniture. Please be careful to retain all fittings when doing this. (For fully or partial
assemble items).
Care Instructions
Wood Furniture
Wood displays different grain patterns depending on which way they cut - for example, the ‘medullary ray’ which can
appear on oak furniture is a mark of good quality timber - these are just characteristics of the natural beauty of the
wood. Some furniture is also deliberately aged and rustic.
All timber surfaces will change colour and mellow over time. New furniture will initially vary in shade from items that
have been previously purchased.
Metal
Do not use any abrasive cleaner or harsh detergent as this can damage the surface.
Your feedback is very important to us and we would love to hear your comments on your new furniture. Please
