The antique finish may develop a patina over time, especially if exposed to elements outdoors, which is characteristic of aged metal.
Ensure the sphere is placed on a flat, level surface. Check that the base is clear of debris and sitting evenly.
Gently wipe the sphere with a soft, dry cloth. For a slight sheen, a very light application of furniture polish suitable for metal can be used sparingly.
Minor rust spots can be a natural occurrence on iron. They can be gently buffed with fine steel wool if desired, or left as part of the antique aesthetic. Consider applying a clear sealant suitable for outdoor metal if extensive rust is a concern.

Compatibility: This item is compatible with a wide range of decor styles, from traditional to contemporary. It can be placed indoors in living rooms, studies, or bedrooms, and outdoors in gardens, patios, or balconies.
Care: To maintain its appearance, dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For a deeper clean, use a slightly damp cloth and wipe dry immediately.
