Palm Beach Table Top | Round

This product is designed to enhance both your indoor spaces and covered outdoor areas, such as patios or pergolas. While it adds style and comfort in any setting, if used outdoors, we recommend protecting it from direct sunlight and rain to maintain its durability and beauty. With proper care in sheltered environments, you can enjoy this piece for years to come.

Characteristics

Reclaimed boat timber features a rich history, marked by weathered textures, aged paint remnants, nail holes, and surface imperfections that showcase its previous life. Each piece is unique and offers an authentically rustic, layered appearance with a patina that continues to evolve over time.

Common Issues or Risks

Due to its porous and aged nature, reclaimed wood is sensitive to moisture and humidity changes. Excessive wetness can lead to swelling or splitting, while harsh cleaners may damage the original paint layers or finish. Direct sunlight and heat may cause fading, drying, or cracking. The weathered finish may be more susceptible to chipping under pressure.

Preventative Care

Place furniture away from direct sunlight and extreme heat sources. Use coasters, placemats, and soft pads to protect against spills, heat, and surface scratches. Maintain consistent indoor humidity levels to minimise movement or cracking in the wood. Apply a clear furniture wax or sealant occasionally, if desired, to enhance surface protection without compromising the original character.

Cleaning Instructions

Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For light cleaning, gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap solution, then dry thoroughly. Avoid over-wetting the surface, as reclaimed wood is naturally more absorbent.

Cautions / What to Avoid

Do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals. Avoid dragging items across the surface to prevent chipping the aged finish. Do not leave the piece in environments with high humidity or direct sun. Handle with care, especially in areas with layered or delicate textures.
