Using your new coffee table is a breeze. You can place it in your living room and use the spacious top to display decorative items like vases or photo frames, or simply use it to rest your coffee cups and magazines. When it comes to maintenance, regularly dust the table with a soft, dry cloth to keep it looking its best. Avoid placing hot items directly on the wooden surface; instead, use coasters. Since the table is hand - crafted, minor variations in color and grain are normal and add to its uniqueness. Don't worry about any Prop65 chemicals as this product is free from them. Enjoy your beautiful and functional coffee table for years to come!
