Are the shelves treated for durability?
The shelves are finished with a 'Teak' oil or stain for protection and aesthetic. Specific care instructions should be followed to maintain the finish.

How do I clean the shelf?
Dust with a soft, dry cloth. For tougher marks, use a slightly damp cloth and wipe dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals or soaking the wood.
Will the shelf look exactly like the picture?
