Inlay Handmade Pieces
As with all things made by hand, these pieces are all unique and small flaws may be present, which adds to the intrinsic character and beauty of each piece.
Care Instructions
Wipe your bone or mother of pearl inlay with a slightly damp cloth. If the finish becomes dull over time, apply a small amount of coconut oil and white wax, then buff with a dry cloth.
Avoid regular household cleaners, as they can damage inlay surfaces.
Because bone and MOP are naturally porous, high-use items (like coffee tables) should be sealed before use. A clear varnish or polyurethane from any hardware store works well. Made-to-order pieces can be pre-sealed on request for a small additional cost.
With frequent use (e.g., trays or drawers), the natural expansion and contraction of wood and bone can occasionally loosen small pieces. If this occurs, simply reattach with all-fix or super glue.
