Taking care of your antique furniture
Environment can play a major part in damaging the finishing of furniture. It is better to keep furniture away from window side or from any open areas where sunlight can influence them and damage the existing glossy finish on them. Moisture and high humidity in the air can cause a great harm and minimize their life.
Beware of the termites; they are dangerously harmful for antique furniture. They can eat away a great portion inside the antique furniture to reside there and make so many tunnels to reach to the ground. So they need regular attention.
Don’t keep anything wet or hot directly on them as they are already old and fragile to bear any further damage. Save it from any scratches, excessive sunlight, dust, considerable damages or extreme stress on their archaic delicate legs. If stretches or damages are serious, take help of a skilled restorer.
Don’t drag them carelessly or behave recklessly; respect their age and historic significance. Be polite and sympathetic to their hurdles they are patiently carrying over on them.
Cleaning is necessary on regular basis from quick deterioration, especially the joint areas which are hidden from natural attention. Thin coat of wax can annually be done but it is recommended to consult with expert or licensed practitioners before any repair. If you have passion for Antique furniture, then educate yourself about taking care of them in best possible way.
