Using this end table is a breeze. You can place it on your patio or in the garden. Put drinks, snacks, or a book on it when you're entertaining guests or relaxing alone. Just make sure to put it on a flat surface to keep it stable. When it comes to maintenance, wipe it down with a soft, damp cloth regularly to keep it clean. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the Oyster Shell finish. In bad weather, like heavy rain or snow, it's a good idea to cover the table or move it indoors to prevent long - term damage. With proper care, this table will serve you well for a long time.
