Lacquered Finishes
Lacquered pieces have been polished to bring depth and beauty. Although they are typically protected with a clear coat, they remain susceptible to wear.
Precautions:
Use placemats or felt pads under objects that may scratch the surface, and coasters under any liquid containers.
Do not allow liquids to remain in contact with lacquered surfaces.
Avoid leaving rubber or plastic items on lacquer finishes, as they may cause damage.
Important Environmental Information:
Do not place hot or moist objects directly on lacquer surfaces.
Keep lacquered items away from heaters, air conditioning units, and direct sunlight.
Avoid extreme humidity fluctuations; maintain levels between 35–45%.
Excess moisture may cause swelling or warping, while overly dry conditions may lead to cracking.
Maintenance:
Clean with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth, followed by a dry polish with a soft cloth.
Avoid heavy-duty polishes or waxes, which may discolor finishes.
Restoration:
For stains or surface damage, professional refinishing is recommended.
