future care for carvings
tO BEST PRESERVE YOUR CARVING, KEEP IT OUTSIDE AND IN A FILTERED SUN LOCATION. tHESE CARVINGS ARE NOT DESIGNED TO BE INSIDE WHERE AIR CONDITIONING AND HEATING IMPOSE UNNATURAL CHANGES TO THE WOOD’S MOISTURE CONTENT.
All carvings are finished with either multiple coats of marine varnish (Spar Varnish) or polyurethane ( both are easily available). Once a year it is suggested that your wood carving be given a fresh coat. This can be brushed on quickly and left to dry for 24 hours. keep your carving in new-like condition.
