Maintenance of your Natural Wood Urn
With the proper care your wooden urn can stay looking beautiful for years. Please read the information below to help maintain the beauty of your urn.
Wooden urns tend to be extremely durable when it comes to things like falls but they can still be damaged. Two elements that can do the most damage to your wooden urn are moisture and direct sunlight. Each of these elements, over time, can lead to your wooden urn being warped or have the wood crack.
To ensure this does not happen, put the ashes in a plastic bag inside your urn and make sure you don’t place your wooden urn in a room with a lot of moisture or humidity. Also, if placed in a sunny room, make sure it is out of the direct sunlight.
Cleaning is easy. Simply use a soft dry cloth and wipe away any dust. For a deeper clean, take the soft cloth and use a furniture spray that is especially for wood and wipe down the outside of the urn.
To care for you wooden urn please:
- Keep it out of direct sunlight: Sunlight can cause the wood to fade and crack.
- Clean with a soft, dry cloth: Use this to wipe down the urn every couple of weeks to remove dust.
- Avoid water and harsh chemicals: These can damage the wood.
- Polish the urn: Use a furniture polish that’s suitable for the type of wood. Apply the polish with a soft cloth, following the grain of the wood.
- Avoid scratches: Keep the urn away from sharp objects.
- Keep away from moisture: Avoid rooms with high humidity such as bathrooms and kitchens.
- Put the ashes in a plastic bag: To help avoid cracking, putting the ashes in a plastic bag before putting in the urn will help avoid collecting moisture and removing moisture from the urn.
