The coffee table sits right in the centre of the living room, so a solid one is often the heaviest thing you see when you walk in. Clear glass takes that weight away. The rug and the floor show straight through, the light carries across the room instead of stopping at the table, and the space reads as larger than it measures. The same works for side tables, the top of a TV unit, or a dining table at the far end of an open living room.
A vintage coffee table, a sideboard handed down through the family, a timber top you’d hate to see marked: a clear glass cover cut to its exact shape protects it from mugs, glasses, candles and the remote landing on it every evening. Rings and spills wipe off the glass, and the wood underneath stays as it is. A clear top also gives you somewhere to display things. Slide photographs, postcards or a favourite map underneath, and the table becomes something people stop to look at.
We can build the piece entirely from glass, or use glass for the top alone and set it on legs in chrome, satin, timber, board or solid wood. Chrome tends to come in the one silver finish, while timber legs can be any colour you want. The top is cut to the shape the room calls for, round, oval or rectangular, and the glass can be clear, coloured or printed with a design of your choosing.
