Throughout ages, decades and generations, objects and garments have been nourished and being passed throughout generations. This longevity all of our pieces merit, is at the core of THE ATELJE's ethos.
01
How to care for your objects.
Dusting, Minimal Sunshine and Ageing
Regular dusting is the most effective way to maintain the objects original purpose and patent.
Take extra care when exposing wooden furniture to direct sunlight for extended periods of time.
Allow it to age gracefully, materials, especially wood, ages over time and becomes even more gracefull over the years from one generation to another.
02
How to care for your garments.
Dry Cleaning, Airing and Steaming
When it comes to giving your clothing an extensive cleaning, we recommend dry cleaning to extend the life of delicate materials such as crepe satin, as well as heavier pieces like our raw cotton-linen.
When selecting a dry cleaner, prioritise those who use environmentally friendly solvents or procedures for a more sustainable approach. With post-cleaning care in mind, consider these eco-friendly methods to improve your dry-cleaning experience.
We regularly suggest air drying garments between activities. Pieces with our characteristic crepe satin lining are designed for dry washing. When an item has only been used once, airing and steaming are frequently the best options because excessive washing accelerates textile depreciation.
03
How to care for your wine.
Store wine away from light as ultraviolet rays can alter a wine’s flavor. Look for a cool and dark place in your home with a stable wine temperature 7 to 18 °C and a humidity level of around 70%.
Place your wine bottles in storage horizontally to allow the cork to remain moist.
Wines that are meant to be enjoyed over time in a wine cellar or cooler to help the flavors develop over time.
A listing of the most suitable temperature at which to adjust your wine cooler by wine type:
