Materials & Care

Always follow the care instructions that come with each piece of furniture.

Never use indoor furniture outdoors.

Crafted with Intention
The Aperture Collection is crafted in Aotearoa using carefully selected materials that balance longevity, beauty, and environmental responsibility. At the heart of each piece is sustainably sourced timber veneer — chosen not only for its efficiency and low waste, but for its enduring strength and character.

Often underestimated, timber veneer has been used in furniture-making for centuries. When expertly applied, it offers exceptional stability and durability, performing well in changing environments and resisting common issues such as warping or cracking. With the Aperture Collection, thin sheets of natural wood are layered with precision over a furniture-grade, EO-rated MDF base, allowing for greater material efficiency — multiple panels can be made from a single log, with minimal waste.

Every piece is finished with a long-lasting, low-sheen varnish that protects the surface while allowing the natural beauty of the wood to show through. With the right care, Aperture will retain its refined character and structural integrity for many years to come.

Everyday care and Maintenance
Dust regularly with a microfibre cloth.

For light cleaning, use a soft, slightly damp cloth and always wipe dry with a microfibre cloth.

Spills should be cleaned up immediately. Blot the spill using a slightly damp cloth and dry thoroughly.

Keep furniture away from moisture and direct sunlight. Use coasters for glasses and mugs.

To avoid discolouration, avoid leaving objects in the same position on surfaces for long periods of time.

Never use alcohol, ammonia-based or harsh chemicals to clean your furniture.

Do not use abrasive scourers, steel wool or wire-wool cleaners on the surface.
