Side tables are a nice and sometimes very useful piece of furniture. They can be used in a variety of different ways and for all sort of different purposes. And the designs related to this item are often very nice and interesting.Another interesting design for a side table was created by Paolo Cappelli. It's called the FIL table and it was created for the manufacturer Miniforms. What is interesting and unique about this side table is the fact that it's very simple, almost too simple. And that doesn't make it less functional or good-looking. On the contrary, I would say that simplicity is often a big plus when it comes to furniture designs. The less features and decorations it has, the more elegant and beautiful it is.

This table only features a very simple steel base, painted in either white or red, and a round glass top. It sounds like a standard description, but when you're looking at the product you immediately see why this one is so different and beautiful. I really like this piece. It's functional, interesting and beautiful and it can easily be incorporated in any modern home.

How to look after teak furniture?

Posted: 25 Apr 2011 08:08 PM PDT

Teak is natural golden color hardwood material that is commonly used for crafting furniture pieces. Teak wood is oily in nature and can easily resist warping, rotting, contraction as well as expansion due to charges of weather. However, though it is a quality material but still teak furniture demands proper care and maintenance like the other furniture pieces. With little attention and care, the life of your teak furniture can be easily increased by tenfold.

Regular cleaning – as teak is a dense wood, it can be easily quick washed with a mixture of water and mild soap. A soft utility brush may be used to get rid of the surface dust and dirt. However, the furniture piece should be rinsed efficiently after cleaning and allowed to dry off completely.


Graying process – decide whether you wish to allow the teak furniture to turn grey, or you wish to preserve its prime brown color. Teak is known to take over the silver grey look over time as it is exposed to elements of nature. This process may take several years to show results. If you prefer the silver grey look, wipe down the oil produced by teak and very soon your teak furniture will turn grey in few months only.

Natural look – if you desire to maintain the natural original wooden look of the teak furniture, sand the surface of the furniture. This shall remove the old cells that are responsible for the changing color of teak. Employ fine sandpaper and wood grain sand. After sanding the surface, remove the dust and wipe it with a damp cloth before you oil it.

Oiling – The natural honey color of the teak furniture can be easily sustained by regularly cleaning and oiling the teak furniture pieces. The process should be initiated every three months. Several layers of oil, if applied on to the surface of the furniture will form a shield and do not allow teak to be a subject to the charges. Both, Tung or teak oil, are natural products and ideal for use on teak furniture.

Teak brightener – teak brightener may be applied to the teak furniture after the cleaning process in order to enhance the wood grains of the material, sharp the contrasting tones and preserve the honey color. Brightener should be applied every six – seven months.
