Furniture Care: Manchester Wood uses Goddard’s

During this cold winter season we find ourselves indoors mostly, if any maintenance inside the homestead needs doing, it’s the perfect time of year.

Manchester Wood’s solid wood furniture needs care as well from time to time, a polish or cleaner after continual use brings out the beauty and craftsmanship in the item. Our products are known to last for generations, so why not have a well-kept heirloom?

Goddard’s is an English cleaner and polish company that we endorse for use on our products. Metal care, stone and tile care, and wood care are their specialties, and there are three products of theirs we feel work great on our items.

Goddard's Furniture Polish Aerosol

For new Manchester Wood products we recommend Goddard’s “Furniture Polish Aerosol,” a spray that nurtures, protects, and brings out that rich luster in the finish. Most importantly, it protects wood from cracking and drying.

Goddard's Furniture Cleaner and Polish

Older products, items past 5 years, deserve a more thorough cleaning and polishing. Goddard’s “Furniture Cleaner and Polish” is oil formulated conditioning treatment that’s effective in bringing a deeper luster to wood and provides a stronger, long-lasting protection.

The final Goddard’s product we’ll showcase today is their “Antique Furniture Polish,” another oil formulated conditioning treatment that preserves our long-time customers with Manchester Wood furniture past 20 years. This product is no longer found through Goddard’s site, but a link to purchase from a 3^rd party is right here: Allinkosher.com

We hope this information will help you in protecting and preserving your Manchester Wood, American crafted solid wood furniture for many years to come.

Chairside Storage Table: A Product Spotlight

Back in August we wrote about our Storage Solution items (Where do you put your stuff?) and how we live in an era where our “stuff” can become overwhelming. From Media Stands, Cabinets, Shelving, Desks, and Accent Tables, we’ve made an effort in producing the most stylish and practical items for any household.

Chairside Storage Table (in Chestnut finish)

When introducing the Chairside Storage Table, Manchester Wood felt the piece would be an instant success, and it has been since it was unveiled in Yankee Magazine last March. Selling beyond expectation. Produced from solid hardwood ash in either Golden Oak or Chestnut stain-resistant lacquer with it’s most unique feature in design.

Chairside Storage Table w/top opened (in Chestnut finish)

The Chairside Storage Table has a flip-top in a concealing and sleek way that allows items to be stored inside the table; great for holding your remotes, reading glasses, or writing supplies.

It’s also narrower than most End Tables, which makes it great for apartments, condominiums, or rooms lacking space for a larger piece.
