6. Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the cabinet surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish or rattan.
- Rattan Care: The rattan elements are hand-woven. Minor variations such as black spots, ruptures, or glitches due to fiber characteristics and weaving are normal and not considered quality issues.
- Hardware: Periodically check all screws and fasteners to ensure they remain tight. Retighten if necessary.
- Placement: Avoid placing the cabinet in direct sunlight or near heat sources to prevent material degradation.
