If it's old, the glue will be water solvent/heat meltable & French polished. Keep dry and wax polished to keep moisture out.
Don't put wet/hot objects on tables. Always use coasters/placemats.
Keep out of direct sunlight. (UV bleaches veneers & destroys French polish.)
Don't put next to radiators.

Don't get the edges too hot, I'd imagine.
