How to Clean a Mahogny Wood Table

Mahogany wood's reddish-brown coloring adds warmth and richness to any home's decor. Commonly used to build tables and chairs, mahogany wood's durable nature makes it ideal for building furniture. Water rings, dust and wax from furniture polish can accumulate on the surface of your mahogany wood table, resulting in a dull finish. Restore the look of your mahogany table with a common household product, and bring out its shine with high-quality furniture polish that doesn't contain silicone.
