Care & Maintenance

Natural Oak Disclaimer

Muskoka Living's case goods are composed of Grade A select white oak and are finished with semi-transparent stains that highlight each piece and their unique identity. Our earthy limestone finish is also comprised of natural materials. As a result, our products may vary in shade, texture or markings. These are not considered defects of the product, but rather a beautiful reminder of their organic composition.

Shifting in nature may occur, which often results in cracking. This is a completely normal response to the furniture's environment and is not covered under our warranty.

The best way to minimize the likelihood of cracking is to maintain moderate humidity levels between 40-60% and temperatures between 14-21 degrees Celsius. This will reduce the frequency of cracking; however, it should be expected that cracking will occur regardless of a controlled environment.

Post-delivery, it is important to tend to your pieces according to our care instructions. We recommend using heat protectant pads to prevent marking. In the event of a spill, wipe the surface immediately with a damp cloth and follow with a dry soft cloth to prevent marking. Do not use soap containing detergent or other harsh chemicals. Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee that staining or marking will not occur.

Please find a selection of our finishes, which highlight the variation in shades, here. 

 

Muskoka Living's limestone furniture pieces are made with solid wood frames and finished using our proprietary multi-step limestone micro coat process. As a result, our products may vary in texture or markings. These are not considered defects of the product, but rather a beautiful reminder of their unique nature.

Regular Care
The limestone is protected with a layer of flat lacquer. However, this is no foolproof guarantee against stains. In case of a spill, wipe the surface immediately with a damp cloth. Do not use soap containing detergent or other harsh chemicals. Dry with a soft cloth to prevent marking the surface. 

Maintenance
Since our limestone furniture is made with solid wood frames, shifting in nature may occur, which can result in cracking. This is a completely normal response to the furniture's environment and not covered under our warranty. The best way to minimize any cracking is to keep pieces in conditions that are moderate in both temperature and humidity.
Extreme conditions such as highly air conditioned, heated, or humid areas should always be avoided.
