Great Dane Furniture Care Instructions

Each piece is designed to stand the tests of time and in order to get longevity out of your chosen pieces we have put together a selection of care instructions to help guide you when caring at home and in the office.

Oiled wood

Oiled wood will develop a natural patina and character over time which will only enhance the beauty of the material. To maintain the look and feel of oiled wood, annual re-oiling is recommended. Oiling should be done when the wood starts to appear dry or faded. 

Daily cleaning 

  • Wipe table with a clean dry cloth
  • If spots cannot be removed with a dry cloth, use a clean cloth soaked in clean water and wrung well
  • Firmly wipe the surface in the direction of the grain
  • Do not leave liquid to sit on timber surfaces

Soaped wood

Soap treated wood ages well over time developing a patina almost immediately upon use. 

Daily cleaning 

  • Wipe table with a clean dry cloth
  • If spots cannot be removed with a dry cloth, use a clean cloth soaked in clean water and wrung well
  • Firmly wipe the surface in the direction of the grain
  • Do not leave liquid to sit on timber surfaces
  • Dirt and spots of oils can be removed with a light solution of soap water

Leather

Alongside perhaps only timber, no material gives us as much joy here at Great Dane as leather. The patina, the texture, the smell – all of these contribute to the rich character developed by a good quality leather, which, over time, allows a piece of furniture to develop into something as unique as its owner. With this in mind, Great Dane is pleased to now offer a selection of its furniture in Tärnsjö Garveri leathers.

Daily cleaning 

  • For normal cleaning and removing dust, wipe with a soft dry cloth. In case of accidental spots of liquid, immediately wipe the entire surface with a cloth that has been dipped in cold water and well wrung.

Fabric upholstery

For all Great Dane fabric upholstered furniture and cushions, please contact a specialist fabric cleaner for professional cleaning or dry cleaning.

Daily cleaning 

  • Treat spills and stains as soon as possible
  • Do not scrub as this can alter the fabrics appearance
  • To avoid discolouration and maintain longevity, we recommend keeping your furniture out of direct sunlight
