Oak furniture care: here are some tips from rightpricefurniture.  Firstly, place your newly bought oak furniture in the right location: away from direct heat sources (e.g. radiators) or unusually humid locations.

Our second oak furniture care tip is to always lift your furniture if you want to move it, rather than dragging furniture across the floor. Lifting your furniture to move it will ensure you don’t damage the plinth structure.

You should not place hot or wet objects directly onto oak furniture, especially if it is waxed oak furniture.  If you accidentally cause any marks on your oak furniture in this way, try rubbing your oak furniture along the grain with some wax furniture polish applied to some very fine (0000 grade) wire wool. You can see all of our Oak Furniture.

Oak furniture from rightpricefurniture is generally available in three types of finish.  They are:

1.  White or sometimes referred to as raw.  Raw means that the oak furniture has no stain or topcoat – just a naturally beautiful look.

2. Lacquered. The oak furniture has been stained to a colour of choice and then a clear lacquer is added. This gives the oak furniture a tougher shell which makes it far more resistant to stains, moisture and scratches.  This type of finish is the easiest to maintain and clean for oak furniture.

3. Waxed.  Our waxed oak furniture is finished in water-based stain and real wax.  Waxed oak furniture will benefit from the occasional application of solid wax furniture polish, particularly in its first few months in your home.  The sheen of the surface on the oak furniture will probably increase as you apply and buff more furniture wax.  Between wax applications, day-to-day oak furniture cleaning can be carried out with a dry duster.
