Remember that wood is a natural material and can be delicate and photosensitive. Please avoid using detergents on wood and always dry it carefully after cleaning to prevent streaks or patches forming. If you are a particularly assiduous cleaner or you have difficulty removing a mark, you can use specialist stone cleaning products and, if to set your mind at rest you can periodically apply a new coat of sealant.įor cleaning stone, wood and metal, simply use a soft cloth with water or a neutral detergent. Please DO NOT use cleaners containing abrasive cleansers, ammonia, bleach, acid or even those “homemade remedies” made from lemon, vinegar and the like. The important thing is to act quickly before a substance is absorbed into the stone, as that is when it causes staining. The sealant acts as a temporary barrier that allows you to have a few hours between the moment a staining substance (for example, wine or coffee) comes into contact with the stone and the moment you wipe it off. That said, please bear in mind that there is no sealer on the market that can make natural stone 100% stain proof, especially if you leave the staining agent on it for a prolonged period. This helps to preserve the product without compromising the wonderful natural look and feel of the stone. Since we do not like to paint the surface of our lovely stones with transparent paints or resins, we apply three coats of the highest possible level of protective sealant.

But a mirror can also make small spaces feel larger, which is why the interior designers and other cool people we talked to say they often use them simply as décor, too. And they are of course imperative for getting that perfect mirror selfie. We all know that mirrors are useful for getting dressed, flossing, and doing your makeup - basically any activity that requires checking yourself out.
