The "Piero" side table is a beautifully scaled simple rectangular form. Both horizontal surfaces are usable for storage, display, or to hold a glass or cup. The material is stainless steel with a non-directional finish. This will not stain, rust, chip, or tarnish for the life of the table! This is a modernist masterpiece of refined simple form with maximized function. Award winning furniture designer; Greg Sheres, has been designing timeless classics for over 30 years. All of his furniture is hand made in his own factory using the highest quality materials. Maintenance: lightly dust or clean with any glass cleaner or clear coat car polish and a soft cloth. Avoid paper towels and abrasive cleasers. Stainless steel cleaner also works well.
