Using this brass gate cocktail table is a breeze. You can place it in your living room, use it to hold drinks, snacks, or decorative items. When cleaning, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the marble top to avoid scratching. For the iron base, a mild cleaner can be used, but make sure to dry it thoroughly to prevent rust. Avoid placing hot items directly on the marble surface as it might cause discoloration. Also, keep sharp objects away from the table to protect both the marble and the base.
