Maintenance and Repair
Bekkō is an exceptional natural material that, when cared for properly, can retain its beauty for decades. At the same time, it is sensitive to dryness, direct sunlight, and sudden changes in temperature, and thus requires gentle and mindful care. After use, lightly wipe away any perspiration or skin oils with a soft cloth, and store the frame in a well-ventilated place. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight or the heat of radiators and lamps, as such conditions can cause dryness and fine cracking over time. To help ensure lasting enjoyment, KameManNen recommends an annual professional maintenance check. Even if small scratches, dullness, or minor damage should occur, our artisans can restore the frame’s original luster and form through careful polishing and repair, allowing it to return once again to its quietly radiant state.
