Know before you buy
This piece is an authentic 1960s design that exhibits a natural patina consistent with its age. While it retains its original finish and structural integrity, you should expect minor signs of wear that contribute to its vintage character.
Yes, the lower shelf is constructed from the same durable rattan as the top surface. It is designed to support standard decorative items, small stacks of books, or a remote control.
To preserve the natural finish, dust the table regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or excessive water, as these can damage the aged patina and the natural fibers.
While the bamboo legs and wrapped rattan detailing are sturdy, this is a vintage piece best suited for light use. It works best as an accent table in a living room or bedroom rather than a heavy-duty utility surface.
Yes, this piece is sold as a finished unit. It does not require any assembly upon arrival.
