Lazzy Leather Rocking Chair

Weather events such as high humidity and dampness, especially after periods of high rainfall, commonly cause mildew and mould to grow on the surface of wood.

While this piece was designed to have a raw, sanded wood finish, coating wood pieces with a wood sealer/water repellent product, such as varnish or lacquer, can help to make mould easier to remove from the surface or keep it from growing.

A coated product will cause moisture to bead up and run off the surface instead of penetrating and allowing mould spores and mildew to grow. Please note that adding a coating to the product will change the look and feel of the wood.

If you prefer to retain the original raw look and mould does appear, using a mould remover as soon as possible after the mould develops is advised to clean and maintain your product.

Should the mould have sunken roots into the wood, light sanding with fine sandpaper may become necessary to restore your piece.

Leather is sensitive to sunlight, heat, moisture, and oils, which can cause fading, staining, or cracking. Keep away from direct sun and heat sources, and rotate cushions for even wear.

Dust with a soft cloth, blot spills immediately, and use only leather-safe cleaners or conditioners as recommended.

Avoid soaking, scrubbing, harsh chemicals, or sharp objects.
