How to Clean and Care for Your Solid Wood Accessories

Handcrafted solid wood accessories carry a unique warm elegance that synthetic materials simply cannot replicate. Because organic wood responds to humidity and natural skin oils, proper care ensures your Lumis Wood pieces retain their rich patina for generations.

1. Keep Away from Submersion

While natural wood can handle light water splashes, never submerge items like wooden rings, watches, or combs in water. Remove your jewelry before swimming, showering, or washing dishes.

2. Nourish with Natural Beeswax or Mineral Oil

Over time, natural wood may dry out. Apply a small droplet of natural beeswax conditioner or food-grade mineral oil onto a soft microfiber cloth once every month. Gently rub it along the grain and polish off any excess.

3. Store in a Cool, Dry Place

Store your accessories in a dry environment out of direct, prolonged sunlight to prevent grain discoloration or micro-warping. Using a velvet-lined solid wood storage box is ideal.
