Proper usage and maintenance is vital for getting the most out of the valuable resources we have. This design is made to last for generations, but just like everything else, they need a little care to get there. Oak
--
Origin Oak grows in most temperate zones. The Skagerak oak comes from European forests and is either 100% FSC certified or FSC mix certified, supporting sustainable forest management. The selection of the wood is extremely careful and all processing is by hand, so that only the best and most durable pieces of wood are used in production. Why Oak is a sturdy and hardwearing type of wood containing natural tannings that will protect against bacterial growth. Combined with its light, elegant color and well-defined grains, this makes oak wood safe choice for high-quality interior. Cleaning The wood comes with no finish. If you choose not to treat it with soap or oil, use a suitable cleaning agent for wood. Maintenance As the wood is untreated it may be affected by grease and colorants. For this reason, we recommend saturating the wood with soap or a suitable furniture oil to make it more resistant. If you wish to use soap or oil, use a suitable product. Be aware that the wood will change color when applying soap or oil. Note: When using Skagerak's drying racks, do not dry wet laundry directly on the wood as this might discolor the fabric.

About the Designer / Chris Liljenberg Halstrøm With a Swedish mother and Danish father Chris Liljenberg Halstrøm shows her Nordic roots in her designs through a minimalistic approach and strong combinations of materials like wood, leather and wool. Function is her starting point and dictates the idiom of her beautiful designs.
MATERIAL AND CARE Proper usage and maintenance Proper usage and maintenance is vital for getting the most out of the valuable resources we have. Our designs are made to last for generations, but just like everything else, they need a little care to get there. Fibre Wadding Fibre Wadding is made of carded thin polyester fibres that contain air in between the fibres. The entrapped air creates the ability to insulate and to provide a soft comfort feeling in the cushion. Maintenance In order to keep the fibres and cushion full of air, be sure to shake the cushion occasionally. Tärnsjö leather Why The Swedish Tärnsjö tannery has more than 140 years of experience in the art and craft of leather. To colour their products, they use a millennium-old method of vegetable tanning which respects the environment and ensures the development of a unique patina over time. The leather used for this cushion is Tärnsjö’s thinnest and softest, and it has kept its natural appearance through aniline colouring where no colour was added in the finishing process. It has a rich and shifting colour texture and genuine leather feel. Maintenance Leather is a living material, and if exposed to direct sunlight, the colour will darken gradually. Likewise, exposure to hot or dry air for a longer time can dry out the leather if it is not regularly conditioned. Cleaning: To freshen up the leather once in a while, we suggest this 4-step cleaning method: 1. Use a clean natural sponge or soft cloth to remove any dust. 2. 2 dl soap flakes for leather is mixed with a little water and whipped until it is dissolved. 3. Use the foam from the mix to carefully wash the leather with a firmly wrung cloth. 4. Use a soft dry cloth to dry off the leather surface. Oak Origin Oak grows in most temperate zones.

Activist is a Mānuka honey company founded by husband and wife, Luke Harwood and Gabrielle Mirkin. Their shared passion for the earth and natural products can be traced to their childhoods in New Zealand. Luke’s love for surfing and the native coastal land of New Zealand lead him to understand the important role bees play as environmental indicators and was the founding catalyst for Activist. Gabrielle’s time in New York City working as a senior Art Director at Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar led to a slowdown, and the pursuit of new interests outside of the fast-paced world of fashion publications. Gabrielle’s love for radiant health, natural healing therapies and food from the earth was a central driver for the development of Activist. Based between California and New Zealand, they have built a natural and transparent company as an extension of their lifestyle. Activist is a family owned and operated company. Their involvement is far-reaching: from establishing relationships with bee-keepers (even going surfing with them) to product innovation, while building direct relationships with customers and global retailers. They believe it’s important that New Zealand and its resources are represented authentically on a global scale, rather than sold off to international companies to be rebranded and diluted. If that means building a slower growing, sustainable business, that’s cool with them.
