Fabric Coverings

After a spill, blot immediately the spilled liquid. Clean spot or stain from the outside to the middle of the area affected to prevent circling. To remove soil, clean the fabric with the foam from a mild water based detergent. Test on a small inconspicuous area before proceeding.

Danish cord
The Danish cord used for our seats and backrests is hand-woven. Variations in the material and its weaving are expected and give it its unique look. The Danish cord has a layer of wax that makes it liquid repellent, but some heavily pigmented foods and beverages may stain it. To clean Danish cord, dab with a damp cloth and neutral soap solution. Do not rub the material.
Refer to the Danish Cord Care Instructions Guide for more details.
Seagrass
As seagrass ages, it will take on a more muted shade for that lived-in look we love. To preserve its beauty, avoid exposure to the sun.
For dusting, simply wipe the seagrass with a soft, dry cloth, in the direction of the strands. Do not wipe diagonally or perpendicular to the cords as this can force debris between the cords.
Vacuum periodically using a soft brush attachment. This can help dislodge and remove some of the debris left behind in-between the seagrass weaves.
Blot spills immediately with a damp cloth. Do not rub the soiled area. Gently dab and blot instead.
Tiny, grass-like strands might stick out from the cords. Resist the urge to yank on them, as it could harm the cords. Instead, delicately snip away the loose fibers with a pair of scissors.
