Bastar wrought iron artefacts are a testament to timeless craftsmanship, combining utility with artistic excellence. Proper care ensures they retain their charm and durability for years to come. Here’s how to maintain your treasured pieces:

1. Prevent Rust Formation

Wrought iron is prone to rust, especially in humid environments. Regularly dust your articles with a soft, dry cloth to prevent moisture accumulation.

2. Protect the Finish

To preserve the matte black finish typical of Bastar ironwork, avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools. Instead, use a mild soap solution for cleaning, and dry immediately to prevent water spots.

3. Avoid Prolonged Exposure to the Elements

For outdoor pieces, limit exposure to direct sunlight, rain, or extreme weather.

4. Polishing and Maintenance

Over time, you can enhance the shine by applying a light coat of linseed oil or a specialized metal polish. Ensure the surface is clean before applying any treatment.

5. Storage

When not in use, store your wrought iron articles in a dry place.

By following these simple care tips, your Bastar wrought iron artefacts will continue to exude their unique heritage and artistry, standing as a proud symbol of tradition and craftsmanship.
