The pieces you love will outlast trends if you give them a few small habits. **Wood.** Dust with a soft, dry cloth. Skip the sprays. A little beeswax once or twice a year is plenty. **Textiles.** Rotate cushions. Wash throws inside-out on a gentle cycle. Air-cushions in the sun every few months — Dhaka's humidity is not their friend. **Leather.** Less is more. A damp cloth, a conditioner once a year. **Brass.** Let it age. If you'd rather it shine, a soft cloth and a few drops of lemon juice will do. **Mirrors.** Vinegar and a soft cloth, never ammonia.
