I have one antique I do that or less to. I won't put anything on it. It's my most valuable piece and it has suffered none in appearance.

I am not too precious with anything I own (I have 3 cats and my house looks like people live in it) but I do wipe down the furniture or dust it. I used to grease everything up with OE because I liked the smell and it was a carry-over from childhood, but my mom told me to stop doing it. the different antiques dealers she works with all say not to use that stuff on it. i've had a few things refinished over the years, but mostly i'm waiting for that one day when i've reached peak maturity and I won't scratch up furniture anymore before I get anything else refinished...yeah right
