Verra / Care
Each material asks for its own attention.
Eight materials, eight short guides. Follow the note for your object, keep it out of harsh sun and standing water, and let the surface record normal life without worry.
Oak
Solid timber
Oak is a dense hardwood with a clear grain and a warm, even tone. It takes a smooth finish and shows small marks of use over time, which settle into the surface.
Care
Dust with a dry cloth and wipe spills promptly. Use a mild soap solution for cleaning and avoid harsh abrasives.
Walnut
Solid timber
Walnut is a dark hardwood with a rich brown tone and a fine, steady grain. It feels calm in a room and pairs well with pale textiles and stone.
Care
Wipe with a soft, dry cloth and keep out of long direct sun. Clean with a damp cloth and dry at once.
Wool
Woven pile
Wool is a soft, springy fiber that holds texture well and quiets a room underfoot. It has a matte surface that reads as flat color from a distance.
Care
Vacuum regularly without a beater bar. Blot spills at once and use a professional cleaner for deep stains.
Linen
Plain weave
Linen is a plant fiber with a dry hand and a fine slub that gives cloth a quiet texture. It drapes with a soft fold and wrinkles in a way that looks lived in.
Care
Machine wash cool on gentle and line dry where possible. Iron on medium if a smooth finish is wanted.
Leather
Full grain
Leather is a smooth hide with a firm hand that eases with sitting. The surface shows grain and small marks, and the color gains depth with touch and light.
Care
Dust regularly and wipe with a barely damp cloth. Keep away from direct heat and condition as needed.
Steel
Brushed metal
Steel is a cool, precise metal that gives frames and legs a slim profile. A brushed finish softens reflection and keeps fingerprints less visible.
Care
Wipe with a soft cloth and mild cleaner. Dry after cleaning to avoid water marks.
Stone
Honed surface
Stone is cool and weighty, with a matte honed surface and soft tonal shift across the slab. It grounds a table and holds temperature in the hand.
Care
Wipe spills quickly and clean with a pH neutral cleaner. Avoid acids and sharp abrasives.
Glass
Low iron
Glass is clear and hard, used where lightness is wanted without losing surface. It reflects the room softly and keeps small spaces open.
Care
Clean with a soft cloth and standard glass cleaner. Avoid gritty pads that can scratch the surface.
