Care Instructions

Keep Dry: Seagrass is a natural fiber—avoid prolonged exposure to water. If it gets damp, pat dry and air out in a shaded space.

Clean Gently: Wipe with a soft cloth or soft brush. Do not soak or use harsh cleaners.

Store Thoughtfully: Keep in a cool, dry place. Use a dust bag or soft cloth for storage. Avoid stacking or overstuffing.

Handle with Care: Seagrass may soften over time, but will maintain its structure if cared for properly. Avoid overloading with heavy items.
