5. Care and Maintenance

Proper care will ensure the longevity and beauty of your Kerra Side End Table.

5.1 Marble Top Care

• Cleaning: Wipe the marble surface regularly with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a pH-neutral stone cleaner. Avoid acidic or abrasive cleaners, as they can etch or scratch the marble.
• Spills: Wipe up spills immediately, especially acidic liquids like fruit juice, wine, or coffee, to prevent staining. The marble is stain-resistant, but prompt cleaning is always best.
• Protection: Use coasters under drinks and placemats under hot items to protect the surface from heat and moisture rings.
• Sealing: While the marble is genuine and offers superior scratch and water resistance, periodic sealing (every 6-12 months) with a marble sealant can further enhance its protection and shine.

5.2 Frame and Carvings Care

• Dusting: Dust the wooden frame and polyurethane carvings with a soft, dry cloth.
• Cleaning: For more thorough cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid excessive moisture.
• Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading or damage to the finish.
• Heat and Humidity: Maintain a stable room temperature and humidity level to prevent wood from warping or cracking.

6. Troubleshooting

• Wobbling Table:
  • Ensure the table is on a flat surface.
  • Check all leg connections and tighten any loose bolts.
  • If necessary, use furniture pads or shims under the legs to level the table.
• Surface Stains on Marble:
  • For fresh spills, wipe immediately with a damp cloth.
  • For stubborn stains, consult a professional marble cleaning guide or use a specialized marble poultice. Avoid DIY remedies that may damage the stone.
• Scratches on Frame:
  • Minor scratches on the champagne finish can sometimes be touched up with a furniture repair marker or wax stick that matches the color.
  • For deeper scratches, professional repair may be required.
