Paper & natural fibers
Paper, rattan, seagrass and other natural fibres bring a sense of warmth, lightness and authenticity to interiors. Their organic textures, natural colour nuances and artisanal character give every design a unique look. The beauty of these materials lies precisely in their natural imperfections. Variations in colour, texture and shape are inherent to the fibres and make every piece special. With gentle care and protection against damp, heat and prolonged direct sunlight, they will retain their beauty over time.
Discover the specific care instructions for each material to ensure proper maintenance.
Papier-mâché
Papier-mâché is a lightweight, characterful material with a tactile, artisanal look. Its organic shapes, visible textures, and subtle irregularities give each decorative object a unique, handmade character.
Variations in color, shape, texture, and finish are characteristic of papier-mâché and contribute to the product’s authentic look.
Care
To preserve the look of your papier-mâché decoration for as long as possible:
- Carefully remove dust with a soft, dry cloth or soft brush.
- Avoid contact with water and do not clean the surface with a wet cloth.
- Do not use harsh, chemical, or abrasive cleaning products.
- Protect the object from moisture and do not place it in damp areas.
- Immediately remove spilled liquids by gently blotting with a dry, absorbent cloth.
- Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and strong heat sources.
- Handle the object with care and avoid impacts, drops, or pressure on fragile parts.
- Bowls and dishes are for decorative use only and are not suitable for serving or storing food.
- Vases are not watertight and are suitable only for dried flowers or decorative branches.
- For indoor use only, unless otherwise indicated.
Seagrass
Seagrass is a natural plant fiber with a warm color and a distinctive woven texture. Its natural appearance and handcrafted construction give each basket an authentic, unique character.
Variations in color, fiber thickness, weave, and shape are inherent to the natural material and make each piece unique. Slight changes in color or shape may occur over time and are part of seagrass’s character.
Care
To preserve the natural appearance of your seagrass item for as long as possible:
- Remove dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth or soft brush.
- If needed, use a slightly damp cloth, then let the basket air-dry completely.
- Avoid excessive water and prolonged exposure to moisture.
- Do not use harsh, chemical, or abrasive cleaning products.
- Blot spills immediately with a dry, absorbent cloth.
- Protect from prolonged direct sunlight to reduce discoloration and drying out.
- Avoid placing it close to strong heat sources.
- Do not pull or cut protruding fibers, as this may damage the weave.
- Store the basket in a dry, well-ventilated place.
- Suitable for indoor use only, unless otherwise indicated.
