BRASS:
To preserve its original appearance, clean periodically with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive products, chemicals, or metal sponges, as they may scratch or stain the surface. In humid environments, more frequent cleaning is recommended to minimize natural metal oxidation.
For polished brass pieces, the use of carnauba wax is recommended to enhance the shine and protect the surface.
Warning: Parts with brass or copper finishes are not suitable for coastal areas or areas exposed to sea air.
MICROTEXTURE PAINTING:
Clean with a cloth lightly dampened with water and mild soap. Do not use solvents, alcohol, abrasive sponges, or harsh cleaning products. Avoid constant rubbing or impacts that could damage the paint.
NATURAL STRAWS:
Because they are organic materials, straw can exhibit natural variations in color and texture over time. To maintain their appearance, gently clean them with a dry cloth or soft-bristled brush. Avoid excessive moisture and direct sunlight, which can cause discoloration or warping.
FABRIC DOMES:
Remove dust regularly with a duster or vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment. In case of stains, clean with a cloth lightly dampened in a solution of water and mild soap, avoiding soaking the fabric. Do not use bleach, solvents, or harsh chemicals.
GLASS:
It is recommended to clean with a soft, clean cloth, using only water and mild soap. Avoid abrasive products, rough sponges, or glass cleaners containing ammonia, as they may stain or damage the surface. Handle with care to avoid scratches and cracks.
