Caring for polished Bronze Statues

Bronze statues are intricate and durable. Use a soft, dry cloth or a feather duster to remove dust regularly. For deeper cleaning, sprinkle one-half of a lemon with table salt and gently rub the lemon onto the bronze in a circular motion to remove the tarnish. Rinse, dry, and buff with a clean cloth for a shiny finish.

Oil Cleaning for Bronze in Antique Finish

Choose a gentle oil like coconut oil. Apply all over the statue and leave it for about 30 minutes. Wipe off excess oil with a dry cloth. This method preserves the antique finish of bronze items while keeping them clean and refreshed.

Cleaning Brass Articles

Brass, a blend of copper and zinc, exudes a warm glow. To clean, gently dust your brass items with a soft, dry cloth to keep them clean and shiny. If they get a bit dirty, use a mild soapy solution and a soft cloth to wipe them down. Rinse and dry thoroughly to prevent water spots.

Preserving Wooden Articles

Wooden handicrafts require special care. Dust regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth. For stubborn stains, use a mixture of mild soap and water, but don't oversaturate.

Handling Thanjavur Paintings

Thanjavur paintings are delicate. Keep them away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. Dust gently with a soft brush or a lint-free cloth. Avoid touching the painted surface directly, and handle it with clean, dry hands.
