Hon, a lot of times you can rub mayonaise (be generous) into a water ring and the oil will go down and lift up the water. Leave it on over night, It costs about $200.00 to $500.00 here to get a table top refinished. I do know gravy will bleach one right out, so I always have the gravy bowl on a platter!

Two good bits of information! Thanks for passing those along. Adding that, I also feel the bottom of ceramic dishes to see if smooth or not. I don't even set those things on counter tops w/o something under them. Scratches are not wanted anymore than dish rings. HTH

I agree!! It is so great for others to be so helpful and to give out such great advice and for sticking with the OP's post and not going "off topic"!

I'm glad the OP understands that her having this problem has nothing to do with it being Temp-tations...that any ceramic would do the same thing. I do appreciate the OP in letting everyone know that this might happen when putting any ceramic on a wooden surface. Glad to see many posters offering suggestions!!

There are other products that are fully vitrified china that do not absorb water.

Fiesta for one.

Fiesta has been around as long as it has because it's QUALITY.

I cringe when they bring out the piece and mock it in the TT demonstrations.
