I now have both a desk and bookcase from this same furniture manufacturer and I am very satisfied. One needs to avoid using chemicals or water to clean. A dust cloth should be sufficient, in most cases. I am a very satisfied customer. This style looks good without being glitzy. Catherine Mary Margaret Tatlock Brown Place, Lindenhurst, 11757
