Add some happy colour to your bedroom or living room with this modern chic Lilo pedestal. This cabinet on a gold base is a winner. We believe that the design of this modern bedside pedestal is a smart, sophisticated design with a striking contrast of materials and colours. The design details set this side table apart. A designer bedside pedestal for an affordable price point. It is a must have in your bedroom or living room. Material Solid Wood Dimensions Width: 650 mm Height: 620 mm Length: 450 mm Solid Wood The cream of the crop in the furniture industry is working with solid wood. At Furniturespot we believe that great design should be available for everyone, and if we only would work with solid wood it would mean our items are only available for the happy few. We would like to make furniture for the ‘happy many’! Therefore, our designers and makers at Furniturespot love to work with engineered wood, also known as veneer. The price is 400% cheaper than a solid oak top. It is better resistant to the South African climate with no risk of cupping, bowing, cracking of the top and it is easy in maintenance. But don’t you worry, we do still work with solid woods such as French oak. But always in combination with veneer. Most of our tabletops have a veneer oak top with a solid oak edge. Designing furniture with best of both worlds in mind. We made a Q&A around solid oak and engineered oak. Care construction Sun damage Solid wood is sensitive to light. We'd recommend that you avoid leaving anything on the surfaces for the first 6-8 weeks, if they're exposed to sunlight. This should help you avoid any marks or rings appearing if the furniture lightens in the sun. Cleaning A damp (never soaking wet) cloth will do it. Dry the surfaces thoroughly afterwards. Both wood and engineered wood can be damaged by liquids, so if you spill anything on it, be sure to wipe it dry immediately. If you need to remove any stains, go gently – use mild soap and warm water.   Made: This product is proudly handcrafted in South Africa. Note: Actual product colours may slightly vary from colours shown online due to screen variations, image lighting and fabric availability. Please ask a sales representative for colour swatches and fabric samples should you be unsure. Decor items, mattresses and or bedding are not included with our products unless explicitly stated.
