How do I care for vintage furniture pieces

Sure! Here are five different ways you can care for vintage furniture:

**Dust Regularly**: Just like anything else, vintage furniture collects dust. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe it down regularly. Avoid harsh chemicals that can damage the finish.

**Keep Away from Direct Sunlight**: Sunlight can fade and warp wood over time. Try to place your vintage pieces away from direct sunlight or use curtains to protect them.

**Use Coasters and Placemats**: To avoid water rings or stains, always use coasters under drinks and placemats under hot dishes. This helps keep the surface looking pristine.

**Condition the Wood**: Every now and then, use a good quality wood conditioner or polish to keep the wood hydrated and looking its best. Just make sure it’s suitable for the type of finish on your furniture.
