Ashton Leather Dining Chair

Care & Maintenance

To preserve the beauty, comfort, and longevity of your Ashton Leather Dining Chair, regular care and gentle maintenance are recommended. Expertly crafted from premium solid American oak with a protective Bianco oil finish and upholstered in luxurious Grade 1 semi-aniline genuine leather, the Ashton is designed to provide exceptional comfort, timeless elegance, and lasting durability for years of everyday use.

General Cleaning

Dust the chair regularly using a soft, dry microfibre cloth to remove everyday dust and debris. Clean the American oak frame with a slightly damp cloth before drying immediately with a clean, soft cloth to preserve the Bianco oil finish and maintain the natural beauty of the timber.

American Oak Care

American oak is renowned for its exceptional strength, durability, and beautifully defined grain. The premium Bianco oil finish enhances the timber’s natural appearance while helping to protect the surface from everyday wear. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these may damage the finish. Gentle cleaning and routine maintenance will help preserve the warmth, character, and integrity of the timber for many years.

Semi-Aniline Leather Care

The Grade 1 semi-aniline genuine leather upholstery should be cleaned using a soft, dry cloth or a leather cleaner specifically formulated for premium leather furniture. Semi-aniline leather combines the natural beauty of genuine leather with an added protective finish, making it both luxurious and practical for everyday use. Avoid excessive moisture, household detergents, or solvent-based cleaning products, as these may damage the leather’s protective coating. Applying a quality leather conditioner periodically will help maintain its softness, flexibility, and rich appearance while preventing it from drying out over time.

Spill Management

Blot spills immediately using a clean, absorbent cloth without rubbing the surface. Prompt attention to spills helps minimise staining and protects both the leather upholstery and the American oak frame from unnecessary damage.

Avoid Direct Sunlight & Heat

Position the chair away from prolonged direct sunlight, fireplaces, heaters, and other direct heat sources. Continuous exposure may cause the leather to fade or lose moisture and may gradually alter the natural colour of the American oak over time.

Natural Material Characteristics

Every Ashton Leather Dining Chair is crafted using genuine natural materials. Variations in timber grain, colour, texture, knots, and the natural markings found in genuine leather are normal characteristics that contribute to the individuality and authentic beauty of each chair, ensuring every piece is truly one of a kind.

Floor Protection

Always place the chair on a stable, level surface and avoid dragging it across the floor. Lifting the chair when repositioning it will help protect both the furniture and your flooring from unnecessary wear. If fitted, ensure the protective foot pads remain clean and in good condition.

Indoor Use Only

The Ashton Leather Dining Chair is designed exclusively for indoor residential and hospitality environments. Avoid exposure to rain, excessive humidity, or outdoor conditions to preserve the integrity of the American oak frame, Bianco oil finish, and genuine leather upholstery.

Long-Term Care

Periodically inspect the chair to ensure all joints and components remain secure and stable. With proper care and routine maintenance, your Ashton Leather Dining Chair will continue to provide exceptional comfort, outstanding durability, and timeless Mid-Century elegance, making it a distinguished addition to your home or commercial space for generations to come.
