It is not a cheap investment to purchase a pair of end tables. When compared to fancy furniture, end tables still have an edge considering their value and high cost and also their endurance factor is far better. Is advisable not to throw them away or sell them at a 'throw-away price', but keep taking care of them as antiques for their value cannot be judged with time.
Important ways to take care of the tables is firstly save them from scratches. It is normal that people around the house brush against it, misuse it or sometimes tend to be a bit rough while handling the table. Placing and removing things from the end table makes it more vulnerable to scratches and also some other furniture might bang into it, if it has been placed too close.
To avoid such a kind of damage, you can cover it with a table runner or even place a nice lamp on it. It is good to use varnish once in a while, and keep it clean from dust and moisture. Keeping the table polished avoids any kind of oil or dust seeping into the scratched surfaces. Be sure not to place food products on it, as it may attract ants and this is surely going to damage the wood. Be sure your hands are not wet or oily when you touch the end table or it can change the colour of the wood. Furthermore, do not lean on them or even drum or use your nails. This will definitely affect the endurance of end tables. Clean them regularly with a soft cloth.
Lastly, but the most important factor is to prevent them from water. Placing any wet bottles or tumblers filled with water without a coaster on the tables could damage the wood in no time. Also many people have a habit of placing tea or coffee cups on the table and do not notice the particles overflowing and are negligent about it. These leave dry marks on the wood which can be cleaned, but the drops that have seeped into the wood will surely affect the end table.
It is always better to look for the preventive measures and be more aware and careful about how you can preserve your precious table, rather look for a cure before it is too late.
