About the products: 

- The natural timber colour will become darker after you have been using it for a while. It's a common change to natural woodworks.

- Remember to wipe the woodworks dry once you have washed it. After drying, you can apply a thin layer of olive oil by using a piece of kitchen paper evenly on the surface of the woodworks. Then use a dry and soft cloth to remove any excessive oil gently. This important caring step can help to prolong the lifespan of the woodworks and gives them a natural shininess.
