Waxed Finishes

Most of the furniture we feature at Jali furniture has a hand waxed finish. Every three to four months you should re-wax each piece of furniture using a soft cloth and a good quality beeswax polish, preferably creamed beeswax. Taking a clean, soft cloth, apply beeswax polish sparingly to the entire surface of the piece, always working with (in the direction of) the grain. Once a thin, even coat is applied to the entire piece, take another clean cloth and gently buff the surface to the desired level of shine, again in the direction of the grain. Never use silicone based spray polishes such as Mr Sheen as these can cause the wood to dry out and discolour.

Spills & Stains

Sheesham and acacia timbers are extremely hard wearing, however it is always advisable to use coasters and place mats to protect your furniture as hot or damp items may cause staining or marking. Any spills should be cleaned up immediately with a dry or barely damp cloth as moisture left in contact with the surface can cause the wood grain to swell. The beauty of solid wood furniture is that it can be sanded and re-finished should any severe marking occur. Simply sand gently in the direction of the grain with fine sandpaper or wire wool. The furniture can then be refinished with beeswax.

Positioning Jali Furniture

Always try to position your Jali furniture away from sources of direct heat and sunlight when possible. Sunlight can cause the colour of the wood to fade, leaving unsightly differences between sides in the shade and sides which are exposed. Also, try not to place your furniture near a radiator as the sudden changes in temperature can cause the wood to dry out and crack, doors/drawers to jam or for joints to become loose.

The furniture you buy for your home is a major investment and Jali furniture, like any item of solid hardwood furniture, with a little looking after, will become a prized heirloom which will be passed on for generations.
