Inspired by a classic antique three-tiered Chinese cabinet, which is part of Charl van Heerden's personal collection of global-inspired treasures, Charl's Bamboo range is designed for the modern home with recognition and respect for traditional craftsmanship.

The stunning Bamboo range features a reclaimed elm wood frame; sourced from old farmhouses and bleached to create a soft, light raw wood tone. Contact us for any custom paint finishes. 

The bamboo slats' door design embraces traditional craftsmanship. It features original mortise and tenon joinery, a method that connects the frame and door without modern hinges.

Each piece of the Bamboo range represents a section of the antique three-tiered Chinese cupboard in Charl's home. While the traditional Chinese kitchen cabinet was designed to circulate air around fruits and vegetables without letting in light and the lower compartments housed domestic chickens, the Bamboo range seamlessly fits into contemporary environments.

Wonderfully pure and simple in construction, the organic and earthy design of the Bamboo range will bring a subtle degree of difference to any space.

Please note that this range is handmade from vintage elmwood and therefore shows signs of wear and tear, marks, inconsistencies and imperfections. We consider this part of their charm and the natural beauty of the wood. These are not seen as faults or flaws but rather signs of their history and appeal.

Characteristics

Bamboo is a fast-growing natural material known for its strength, lightness, and organic texture. It often features subtle variations in colour and finish, with a natural patina that develops over time, adding to its character.

Common Issues or Risks

Prolonged exposure to moisture or direct sunlight may lead to warping, fading, or cracking. Extreme dryness can cause splitting, while high humidity may result in swelling. Harsh cleaning methods or physical stress can damage the surface or loosen joints and bindings.

Preventative Care

Keep bamboo furniture indoors or in covered outdoor spaces. Use coasters, placemats, and soft pads to protect surfaces from spills, heat, and scratches. Maintain stable humidity levels where possible. Reapply natural oil or wax occasionally to nourish the bamboo and preserve its finish. Check joints and woven bindings periodically and repair or tighten as required.

Cleaning Instructions

Dust regularly using a soft, dry cloth. Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap solution, then dry immediately with a clean towel. Avoid over-wetting or soaking the material.

Cautions / What to Avoid

Do not use harsh chemical cleaners, abrasive tools, or steel wool. Avoid direct sunlight and moisture exposure for extended periods. Do not drag furniture, always lift to move. Store in dry, ventilated conditions to avoid swelling or mould. Avoid placing hot items directly on bamboo surfaces.

ANCHOR YOUR FURNITURE
Ensure Your Home’s Safety

Serious or fatal crushing injuries can occur from furniture tipping over.

To prevent this, furniture must be permanently fixed to the wall using appropriate anchoring hardware.

Anchoring devices may not be included, as different wall materials require different types of fastening systems.

For advice on suitable fastening devices for the walls in your home, please contact your local specialised dealer.
