Using your Gideon Shagreen Side Table is easy. Just place it where you need it, like next to your sofa or bed. You can put your daily essentials on it, such as a lamp, a cup of coffee, or your keys. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the surface regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they may damage the wood and leather. Also, keep it away from direct sunlight to prevent the color from fading. If there are any spills, clean them up right away to avoid stains. With proper care, this side table will serve you well for a long time.
