Maintenance Manual
Your KATHAROS chair is more than furniture — it is an investment in comfort, elegance, and daily living. With a little mindful care, your chair will continue to enrich your home for many years.
1. Everyday Care
-
Dusting: Gently dust your chair with a soft, dry cloth on a weekly basis to maintain its natural finish.
-
Vacuuming: Use a handheld vacuum or brush attachment to remove crumbs and dust from fabric or upholstered surfaces.
-
Spills: Wipe spills immediately with a clean, absorbent cloth. Blot — never rub — to avoid damaging fabrics.
2. Fabric & Upholstery
-
For regular cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap if necessary.
-
Avoid strong detergents, bleach, or abrasive cleaners, which may weaken fibres or alter colours.
-
To refresh fabric, occasionally let the chair "breathe" by placing it in a well-ventilated room.
3. Leather & Faux Leather
-
Wipe gently with a soft damp cloth and dry with a clean towel.
-
Apply a leather conditioner every 6–12 months to preserve suppleness.
-
Keep away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent fading or cracking.
4. Wooden Frames & Legs
-
Clean with a soft cloth, lightly dampened if needed.
-
Use a wood-safe polish occasionally to restore natural shine.
-
Avoid dragging the chair across the floor to protect both the wood and your flooring.
5. Metal Components
-
Wipe with a dry or slightly damp cloth.
-
If exposed to moisture, dry thoroughly to prevent oxidation.
-
Do not use abrasive pads or harsh chemicals.
6. Placement & Protection
-
Keep your chair away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
-
Avoid placing near radiators or fireplaces, as extreme heat may damage upholstery or wood.
-
Use felt pads under legs to protect both your chair and flooring.
7. Long-Term Care
-
Rotate usage (if you have multiple chairs) to allow even wear.
-
Tighten screws or bolts occasionally to maintain stability.
-
Schedule a light deep clean once or twice a year, depending on frequency of use.
