put in our homes, in an attempt to enter the natural elements in our home.
However, to prolong its beauty and its use we must regularly pay attention to
maintenance.
Here are tips to take care of:
Once a week: clean the dust on the surface of the cane by
using Vacuum cleaner, dry brush to remove animal hairs and dirt that are
difficult lifted, tweezers to remove tough dirt and stick.
Water Spill: with a clean cloth or a mild detergent mixed with
murphy oil soap and then wipe dry completely wet (can be done once a month and
should not be often)

result in dry cane, if the humidity is too high will cause mildew.
