Using your Bleeker Marble Side Table is a breeze. Simply place it in your desired spot, whether it's next to your sofa or in a corner of your living room. It's ready to use right out of the box as no assembly is required. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the marble top regularly to keep it looking clean and shiny. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they can damage the marble. For the gold base, a gentle polish with a non - abrasive metal cleaner will help maintain its luster. Since it's a handmade product, handle it with care to prevent any accidental damage. Keep in mind that the slight variations in the product are part of its unique charm, so don't worry about small gaps between the marble and the frame.
