To use this console table, simply place it in your desired nautical - inspired room or office space. You can put decorative items, keys, or small plants on the tempered glass top. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the glass and aluminum parts regularly. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they may scratch the surface. Also, be careful when moving the table to prevent any damage to the delicate sea life details. If the table gets wet, dry it immediately to avoid rust on the aluminum.
