Care and Handling

As with any items made from wood they will swell when exposed to high temperatures, liquids, or humidity. Japanese puzzle boxes should be protected from extremes in temperature and humidity. The inside of your home or office is fine, just keep them away from direct sunlight.

To clean the boxes, simply wipe with a clean cloth. There is a protective finish applied to each box, so there beauty and color will last for years with virtually no maintenance. We recommend that you do not use furniture polish on the boxes. If you wish to use a polish on the box, spray it first, very lightly onto the cloth to prevent to polish from accumulating in the seams of the puzzle box which could make that wood swell and become more difficult to open.
