Torch-Cut Steel:

Torch-cut steel pieces have hand-applied finishes, and care must be taken to maintain the piece.

Maintenance (metal areas):
Clean with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Do not use commercial or heavy-duty polishes or waxes as they may scratch or damage the finish. Use a can of compressed air to blow off dust and small debris in hard to reach areas.

Maintenance (molten glass, enamel, and leafed areas):
Please use a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove dust. Do not use any commercial cleaners, polishers, or chemicals that may damage the finishes.
Restoration: Please consult a professional metal restoration specialist or contact your SVDA representative for possible options.

Glass and Crystal:
Maintenance: Glass and crystal can be cleaned by wiping with a soft, damp cloth or glass cleaner with no additives. Apply the glass cleaner to a soft cloth rather than directly onto the fixture to avoid overspray that may damage other finishes.
Restoration: Light scratches and nicks can often be addressed by a professional glass service.
