This chair is easy to use. Just sit on it like you would any regular chair. It's great for relaxing in your living room or adding a touch of vintage charm to your dining area. When using it, avoid putting excessive weight on the armrests to prevent damage. For maintenance, simply dust it regularly with a soft cloth. If there are stains, use a mild wood cleaner and a soft brush to gently clean the surface. Don't expose it to direct sunlight for long periods as it may cause the wood to fade.
