Phoenixwood basswood is naturally resistant to warping under normal indoor conditions. However, timber venetians are not recommended for high-humidity areas like bathrooms — use faux wood PVC blinds in wet rooms instead.

Dust each slat regularly with a soft cloth or feather duster. For deeper cleaning, wipe with a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid soaking timber slats in water.
