River stone
River stone is a particularly hard and resistant natural stone from the Javanese tropical rivers of Indonesia. The different colours, shades and structures characterise the individuality of each washbasin and are created by the oxidation of the stone. Despite its hardness, the river stone is very sensitive to acids, which is why acidic cleaners should be avoided when caring for it.
Care
A natural stone sink should be clean and dry as soon as it is no longer in use. This is especially important if your water has a high mineral content. After use, please clean the sink with a mild cleaner or soap (free of acid and chlorine) and wipe it out with a damp cotton cloth that does not lint. Despite the hard material, natural stone should be protected from pointed and sharp objects, as these can permanently damage the surface. Water above 60 degrees Celsius should also not be used. Avoid contact with concentrated bleaching agents, corrosive agents, lyes and other acidic cleaners at all costs. These will cause changes in the colour.
Hard stone (bluestone, granite)
These are resistant hard stones. However, only granite is almost insensitive to acids. Therefore, you should also avoid acidic and chlorine-containing cleaners for hard stones. To protect a bluestone from absorbing skin grease, for example, we recommend impregnating it with Lithofin Fleckstop PLUS. Fleckstop PLUS protects against stains, deepens the colour tone ("wet effect") and repels water. If you do not regularly saturate the surface of bluestone with an impregnation, the stone will lose its colour intensity over time. If you value a natural patina, you should do without impregnation.

Marble (marble, travertine, onyx)
Marble is a crystallised limestone that is formed inside the earth under pressure and heat. In its pure state, marble is white. The different colourings are caused by oxides of various metal salts. Marble is a medium-hard natural stone and is very sensitive to acids, which is why acidic cleaners should not be used for care.

Teak
The teak tree is characterised by an exceptionally high rubber content, which makes the wood particularly resistant to water and, due to its oily nature, extremely resistant to abrasion and acid. The wood of the teak tree is considered indestructible and can withstand even severe climatic changes. Teak comes from Southeast Asia and covers about eight million hectares of land in India. Teak has been growing on the Indonesian island of Java since about the 14th century and is one of the most resistant woods.
Care
The care of teak is very simple and can be done by anyone with little effort.
On delivery, the furniture is already provided with two layers of water-based varnish so that the furniture is protected and immediately ready for use. Depending on the stress on the furniture, we recommend re-varnishing it if necessary. To do this, sand the surface first and apply the new lacquer with the help of a lacquer roller. We recommend a transparent matt acrylic PU lacquer.
