Marri is a hardwearing and durable timber, which while warm in tone, exhibits varying hues of green, gold, orange and brown giving each piece a unique character and beauty.
Marri timber is quickly becoming a popular timber of choice amongst our clients. The popularity of Marri furniture is due to its beautiful peach & honey tones throughout and the presence of kino or gum veins. The contrast of the dark gum lines and light timber tones provide stunning contrast and a distinctive feature to the finished furniture piece. Gum veins are skilfully crafted with precision & filled with either dark or clear resin exhibiting a raw beauty not seen in other timbers.
All Adriatic Marri pieces are made from 100% sustainably sourced slab timber. To ensure your Marri timber lasts the test of time, avoid using any abrasive cleaning products on your furniture because they will scratch the surface. The best method is to use a slightly damp clean soft cotton cloth to clean the furniture surfaces.
It is important to avoid placing heat directly onto the surface, as it may cause discolouration to the sealer and permanent damage. Whilst in use we highly recommend using a table cloth, coasters and or placemats.
For everyday cleaning we recommend wiping down with a damp cotton cloth, and you may even use a mild non-abrasive, non-ammonia based soap. Do not use heavy abrasive, bleach based, or ammoniated cleansers as they will wear down the protective seal and result in less resistance. We do not recommend the use of most normal cleaners which are often citrus based, as the cleaning agent is highly acidic and can damage the surface materials.
For any type of spillage including food, alcohol or soft drink we recommend you wipe up and clean as quickly as possible. Expect occasional rings to appear from unknown liquids. Oils in particular can penetrate the surface so wiping up oil spills immediately can minimize the penetration and staining.
Whilst in use, we highly recommend preventative measures (such as coasters, placemats and/or tablecloths) to better protect the surface of the timber from scratches and markings.
We hope you enjoy our timeless designs.
