BEFORE YOU ORDER
A few useful notes about the materials, finishes and everyday care behind a SHIULUNE home. Each piece is chosen to be lived with — and looked after with ease.
THE SHIULUNE EDIT
Our collection brings together wood, ceramic, glass, metal and decorative finishes. Natural grain, hand-applied glaze and artisanal detailing mean small variations in tone, texture and pattern can occur from piece to piece. These are signs of material character, not flaws.
01
Each listing includes details about material, finish, intended use and care. Review this information before ordering, particularly for pieces you plan to pair with existing furniture or table settings.

Plan a protected, stable surface before your piece arrives. Keep delicate décor away from edges, direct heat and high-traffic areas.
02
| MATERIAL | WHAT TO EXPECT | EVERYDAY APPROACH |
|---|---|---|
| Wood | Natural grain and tonal shifts | Keep dry; use coasters and wipe spills promptly. |
| Ceramic & porcelain | Small glaze and pattern variation | Handle with care; avoid sudden temperature changes. |
| Glass | Fine bubbles or slight irregularity may occur | Use a soft cloth and store where pieces cannot knock together. |
| Metal finishes | Warm patina can develop over time | Dry immediately after cleaning; avoid abrasive polish. |
03
| PIECE | HOW TO CARE |
|---|---|
| Furniture & wood décor | Dust with a soft dry cloth. For marks, use a barely damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid bleach, alcohol and silicone-based cleaners. |
| Decorative tableware | Hand-wash with mild soap unless the product page says otherwise. Do not use abrasive pads or stack without protection. |
| Vases & glass objects | Rinse gently and dry with a lint-free cloth. Do not place in a dishwasher unless specifically marked dishwasher-safe. |
| Upholstered pieces | Vacuum lightly with a soft brush attachment. Blot spills promptly; do not rub. Seek professional advice for set-in stains. |
04
Use felt, linen or cork between delicate pieces and hard surfaces. Leave enough room between place settings for a relaxed table, and keep hot serving dishes on a trivet rather than directly on a finished surface.
Act early: blot liquid rather than rubbing it in. Use mild soap and cool-to-warm water where suitable, then dry fully. Never use harsh chemicals on printed ceramic, gilded details or painted finishes.
