Care of your Valuable Art piece:    
1.  The beauty of your art piece is best maintained by periodic gentle dust removal with a soft brush on a vacuum cleaner.  
2. Display this piece where it will be protected from sun, chemicals, moisture and damaging heat. No wood likes direct sun, because strong light fades rich colors (of course, some wood colors inevitably change over time). 
3. If you have specific questions, you are welcome to email me:  rcpaulson@msn.com.
