Arhaus collections are crafted by artisans from around the world and are expertly designed to withstand everyday use. However, as even the best-made furnishings and décor are not indestructible, normal wear and tear will reflect use and care.
Natural teak should be dusted and gently polished using a dry, clean, soft cloth.
Do not clean using abrasives, harsh, corrosive chemicals, or care products containing ammonia or silicone, as these could damage surfaces.
Teak is rich in natural oils. When exposed to rain showers, these oils can be released and leave marks on new teak furniture. We recommend rinsing your teak furniture with a garden hose prior to first use.
Do not clean teak using pressure cleaners, as these can damage surfaces.
Extra fine sandpaper can be gently used on natural teak surfaces to remove stubborn stains or superficial scratches. Always sand in the direction of the wood grain.
If left uncovered, natural teak will gradually acquire a beautiful silvery-grey patina (typical of untreated teak wood), adding unique character to your piece. The rate of weathering is dependent on climate and time exposed to the elements.
Once weathering of the finish begins, gently hose down furniture and clean with our Golden Care® Hardwood & Teak Cleaner using a sponge or soft scrub brush to remove dirt. Allow surface to dry for 24 hours.
If exposure to moisture over time has raised the wood grain, sand lightly with 120-grit sandpaper.
Apply our Golden Care® Hardwood & Teak Shield to protect from UV rays, mold and mildew, and food and drink stains.
Protect surfaces from incidental marks (like scratching, scorching, and water marks) by using coasters, trivets, felt pads, and non-plastic mats. Wipe up spills immediately.
Avoid letting water stand on surfaces and cushions. Do not allow wet cushions to sit on a frame for extended periods of time, as trapped moisture will contribute to the deterioration of the finish.
Cushions may show signs of wear and lose shape after use. To help prevent this, periodically rotate cushions to distribute wear.
Spot-clean outdoor cushions and upholstery using a clean, absorbent, undyed cloth with a blotting motion. Blot from the outside towards the middle of the soiled area to prevent rings. Never scrub.
For tough stains, spray the area lightly with clear, mild dish soap, liquid laundry detergent, or cleaning solvent and water. Agitate with a sponge or soft-bristle brush as necessary. Blot clean and thoroughly rinse with water to remove residue. Allow to air-dry.
For mold and mildew, InsideOut Performance Fabrics® can be cleaned using a diluted solution of a 10:1 of a bleach to water ratio. Apply the solution lightly using a spray bottle and agitate with a sponge or soft-bristle brush. Blot and rinse thoroughly. Allow to air-dry.
When drying, flip cushions on their side with zippers facing downward. Unzip cushion covers to ensure all water drains out. Do not place outdoor fabrics in the dryer.
Avoid over-rubbing and never clean fabrics with a hard-bristle brush as this could damage fibers.
Outdoor cushions should be dusted weekly with a soft-bristle brush to remove dirt.
We recommend using our Outdoor Fabric Cleaner (sold separately) to remove dirt, oil, and pollutants from your outdoor furniture cushions.
To prevent stains and preserve the fabric of your outdoor furniture cushions, we recommend using our Outdoor Fabric Protector (sold separately).
To preserve the finish and look of your outdoor furniture, protect your piece with our custom-fit furniture covers or store indoors when not in use. Before storing, clean fabrics and ensure cushions are free of moisture, dirt, and debris.
In saltwater environments, rinse furniture and wash with soap weekly to remove salt deposits that can damage finishes.
In freezing environments, thoroughly clean and dry, then store in a dry place to protect your pieces from moisture damage.
For overall cleaning or to clean any overly soiled upholstery, we recommend contacting a professional cleaning service.
