Ten Tips for Maintaining Hardwood Furniture

 

Hardwood furniture has been well developed in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, using high-quality hardwoods such as mahogany, red sandalwood, boxwood, huanghuali, beech, and iron pear as raw materials. At that time, it could be divided into Beijing style, sea style, Cantonese style, Su style and so on. So far, various regions still continue to promote traditional craftsmanship and produce many high-end furniture. The products are mainly used for foreign trade exports and domestic hotels. Beijing hardwood furniture was formerly used by the government. In the Ming Dynasty, the “royal supervisor” and the Qing Dynasty ’s “manufacturing office” used to store precious wood in the world, bringing together master craftsmen from north and south to serve the palace. This has made great progress in Beijing hardwood furniture. The production of folk hardwood furniture in Beijing is best known for the "Luban Pavilion" outside the Chongwen Gate of the Qing Dynasty. In order to show the beauty of the wood itself, Beijing hardwood furniture is generally not painted, but polished and waxed using traditional techniques to make it smooth and bright like a mirror. Beijing hardwood furniture also combines cloisonne, marble and other crafts to increase artistic appeal.

Hardwood furniture maintenance principles:

Principle one, there are two kinds of hardwood homes now. The traditional hardwood furniture generally has no paint layer on the surface, but only hot wax. The surfaces of newly produced hardwood furniture are now protected by large paints or varnishes. There are differences in maintenance tips for hardwood furniture with different treatments.

Principle two, the hardwood contains water, and the hardwood furniture will shrink when the air humidity is too low, and expand when it is too high. Generally hardwood furniture has a shrinkage layer when it is produced, but when using it, you should be careful not to put it in a place that is too humid or too dry, such as close to high temperature and high heat places such as stove heaters, or places that are too humid to avoid mildew And chapped.

Principle 3: If the house is in a low-lying bungalow, the furniture legs must be properly raised if the ground is wet, otherwise the legs will be easily corroded by moisture.

Principle four: When handling or moving furniture, it should be handled lightly, not pulled hard, so as not to damage the tenon-mortise structure. Tables and chairs can not be lifted and easily fall off. They should be lifted from both sides of the table and the surface of the chair. It is best to remove the cabinet door and then lift it to reduce weight and avoid movement of the cabinet door. If you need to move particularly heavy furniture, you can use soft ropes under the furniture chassis to lift and move.

Principle Five: Avoid placing too heavy items on the surface of the furniture for a long time, especially TVs, fish tanks, etc., which will deform the furniture. Airtight materials such as plastic cloth should not be placed on the desktop.

Principle 6: If the floor is uneven in the room, the furniture will be deformed after a long time. The way to avoid it is to use a small piece of wood to make it flat.

Principle 7. Never use wet rags or rough rags to wipe hardwood furniture, especially old furniture. Use clean and weak cotton cloth, after a period of time, add a little furniture wax or walnut oil, and gently wipe back and forth along the wood grain.

Principle 8. The surface of hardwood furniture should avoid rubbing with hard objects, so as not to damage the paint surface and the texture of the wood surface. Special care should be taken when placing decorative items such as porcelain and copper, preferably a soft cloth.

Principle 9: Avoid placing furniture in front of a large south-facing glass window. Long-term direct sunlight will make the furniture too dry and will fade.

Principle 10. Hot water cups cannot be placed directly on the surface of furniture, leaving traces that are not easily removed. Colored liquids, such as ink, should never be spilled on the table.
