ILYA Bar Stool Dark (Brown)

To keep your dining chairs looking their best and ensure their longevity, follow these simple care and maintenance tips:

General Care

• 
  Regularly dust your chairs using a soft, dry cloth to remove everyday dirt and debris.
  
• 
  Wipe up spills immediately using a clean, damp cloth and mild detergent if necessary. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they may damage the finish or upholstery.
  
• 
  For wooden or metal legs, use a gentle furniture polish or a suitable cleaner designed for the specific material.
  
• 
  Avoid dragging chairs across the floor — lift them instead to prevent damage to both the chair legs and flooring.
  

Upholstered Dining Chairs

• 
  Vacuum fabric seats weekly using a soft brush attachment to remove crumbs and dust.
  
• 
  For stains, blot gently with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid rubbing, as this may spread the stain or damage the fabric fibres.
  
• 
  If your chair has removable covers, check the fabric care label before cleaning. Many can be professionally dry-cleaned or machine washed following the appropriate washing instructions.
  
• 
  Consider applying a fabric protector to help guard against spills and stains.
  

Leather or Faux Leather Chairs

• 
  Wipe regularly with a slightly damp cloth, followed by a dry cloth to maintain the natural sheen.
  
• 
  Use a leather conditioner every 6–12 months to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
  
• 
  Keep chairs out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources to avoid fading or drying out.
  

General Tips

• 
  Tighten screws and fittings every few months to ensure the chairs remain stable and safe.
  
• 
  Rotate chairs around your table periodically to distribute wear evenly.
  
• 
  Avoid sitting or standing on the chair backs, as this can weaken the frame.
