How to Take Care of Broyhill Fontana Furniture

Broyhill Furniture's Fontana collection features pieces crafted with a lovely light pine veneer. The pine is finished with a clear lacquer coating, leaving the wood with a natural, unstained appearance. Fontana's light pine finish is then accented with hand-rubbed, translucent white highlights and a bit of distressing. Whether your Fontana furniture pieces are for the bedroom, dining room or living room, the care instructions are the same. Fontana owners will no doubt appreciate that the care instructions are also quite simple and minimal.

Instructions

    • 1

      Dust the furniture with a slightly damp cloth. Be sure to clean all sides, top, bottom and any nooks and crannies.

    • 2

      Wipe the furniture with a dry cloth immediately after dusting. It is very important to absorb any moisture left by the damp dusting cloth.

    • 3

      Clean up any spills immediately, and always use coasters, as the lacquer coating on Fontana furniture is susceptible to moisture damage.

    • 4

      Place hot pads under any hot dishes or heated appliances, as the finish is also susceptible to heat damage.

    • 5

      Do not place oil-based products on your Fontana furniture, as oil and oil-based products may damage the lacquer finish. Be aware that many rubberized products, such as rubber place mats and small appliance feet, are oil based.
