With any of your furniture, avoid extremes of humidity and temperature, which accelerate cracking and checking of finish, and loosen joints and veneer, specifically on wood items. For cleaning follow these steps.
Vacuum or dust with a soft cloth. Occasionally use a cloth just barely dampened to wipe the surface to pick up more dust, and immediately wipe with a dry cloth or soft paper towel.
Do not use spray waxes and polishes on surfaces, as they will leave a higher gloss and some silicone, which may make future refinishing more difficult. You can buy a variety of furniture cleaning products in any furniture store or they can suggest where the best products are sold. Remember to always read the label to make sure the product is compatible with your furniture.

Located in the extreme northeast corner of the United States, Maine consists largely of a coastal plain of eroded valleys, with more resistant rock forming the generally mountainous west (the Longfellow Mts., an extension of the White Mts. and part of the great Appalachian system), Mt. Desert and other islands in the east, and isolated peaks including Katahdin (5,268 ft/1,606 m), the highest point in the state. Receding glaciers deposited long drift ridges across the countryside and dammed the valleys to form more than 2,200 lakes (Moosehead Lake is the largest) and to establish new, rugged watercourses for more than 5,000 streams and rivers. The major rivers are the St. John (which, with the St. Croix, forms part of the international boundary with New Brunswick), the Penobscot, the Kennebec, the Androscoggin, and the Saco.
