Your Cesca Replica Care Instructions

Congratulations on your purchase of a Cesca chair! To ensure the longevity and beauty of your chair, please follow these care instructions.

General Care

  1. Regular Dusting: Dust your Cesca chair regularly using a soft, dry cloth. This prevents dirt and dust from accumulating.

  2. Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause the materials to deteriorate. Place your chair away from direct sunlight or use curtains to filter the light.

  3. Humidity Control: Maintain a moderate level of humidity in your home. Extreme dryness can make the materials brittle, while excessive humidity can cause sagging or mold. A humidity level between 40-60% is ideal.

Cleaning

  1. Cleaning the Frame:

    • Wooden Frame: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down wooden parts. Avoid using harsh chemicals or excessive water.
    • Metal Frame: Use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth to clean metal parts. Dry thoroughly to prevent rusting.
  2. Cleaning the Cane Webbing:

    • Dust Removal: Use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment to gently remove dust.
    • Spot Cleaning: For light stains, use a soft cloth dampened with a mild soap solution. Gently blot (do not rub) the stain. Avoid soaking the cane.

Maintenance

  1. Tightening Screws: Periodically check and tighten any screws or bolts on the chair to ensure stability.

  2. Cane Webbing Care:

    • Rehydrating the Cane: Every 6-12 months, lightly mist the cane webbing with water using a spray bottle. Allow it to dry naturally. This helps maintain the flexibility and strength of the cane.
    • Using Raw Linseed Oil: Applying raw linseed oil to the cane webbing helps with maintenance by keeping the cane supple and reducing the risk of brittleness. Apply a thin layer using a soft cloth and let it soak in overnight before wiping off any excess.
  3. Preventing Damage: Avoid placing heavy or sharp objects on the cane webbing as this can cause damage or tears.

Usage Tips

  1. Weight Limit: Adhere to the recommended weight limit for your Cesca chair to prevent strain on the cane webbing and frame. (Max 120kg)

  2. Proper Handling: When moving the chair, lift it by the frame rather than dragging it to prevent stress on the cane webbing and joints.

By following these care instructions, you can ensure that your Cesca chair remains a beautiful and functional piece in your home for many years. Thank you for choosing our product!
