White Marble Glass Tabletop

Marble glass, a distinctive blend of tempered glass and the timeless elegance of marble aesthetics, undergoes a multi-step manufacturing process to achieve its unique and luxurious appearance. 

The foundation of printed marble glass is a sheet of tempered glass. This type of glass undergoes a special heat treatment, where the glass is rapidly heated and cooled, making it up to 5 times stronger and safer than regular glass, ideal for everyday use.

Using screen printing techniques, intricate marble patterns are transferred onto the glass surface. These designs meticulously replicate the natural variations and veining of real marble, ensuring an authentic look.

Next, specialised inks that possess unique chemical properties that allow them to form strong bonds with the glass, are applied to the top, ensuring the printed design doesn't peel, flake, or chip off easily.

Key Benefits

• Durability: Tempered glass is known for its strength and safety features, providing durability and resistance to breakage. The added protective layer enhances its resilience to scratches and daily wear.
• Easy Maintenance: The application of a protective coating on the glass surface not only enhances its resistance to scratches but also acts as a barrier against stains. This feature simplifies cleaning routines, ensuring  it maintains its pristine appearance over time.
• Elegant Aesthetics: Marble glass seamlessly fuses the enduring allure of marble's natural beauty with the contemporary sophistication of tempered glass. The marriage of these two materials creates a visual symphony that transcends traditional and modern design boundaries, adding a distinctive touch of refinement to any space.
• Realistic Marble Beauty: The screen-printing technique replicates the intricate veining and patterns of natural marble, creating a stunningly realistic visual experience. This allows you to enjoy the timeless elegance of marble at a more accessible price point.
• White Marble: Embrace the classic purity of white marble, enhanced by delicate grey veining that adds depth and dimension. This versatile choice complements any décor, creating a clean and airy atmosphere.
• Additional Shelf: More than just a console table, this design includes a clear tempered glass shelf beneath the main surface, providing additional space to organise your living room essentials and showcase your personal style with decorative items.

Stainless Steel Frame

Transforming a simple stainless steel base into a dazzling centrepiece starts with selecting the appropriate grade of stainless steel for the table based on the desired level of corrosion resistance. 

The chosen stainless steel sheet is precisely cut into the desired shapes and dimensions of the base components using laser cutting, ensuring clean edges and minimal material waste. The individual bent and formed pieces are then welded together to create the complete base structure using Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding. The welded base undergoes grinding to remove any imperfections, welding marks, and achieve a smooth surface finish.

The base is then buffed using progressively finer abrasive materials to achieve a mirror-like finish. This process gradually removes surface irregularities and polishes the metal to a reflective shine. A thin layer of clear lacquer is applied to the polished chrome finish for added protection against smudges and minor scratches.

Care guide

• Gentle Cleaning: Safeguard the pristine appearance of your marble glass by employing a soft, damp cloth or sponge for routine cleaning. Gently wipe the surface to effectively remove dust and smudges without risking scratches or damage.
• Wipe Spills Promptly: Address spills promptly to prevent staining. Gently blot liquids using a clean, absorbent cloth, and, if needed, clean the affected area with a mild cleaning solution. This proactive approach ensures that the marble glass remains unblemished and retains its pristine appearance over time.
• Avoid Sharp Objects: Be mindful of sharp objects that may scratch the glass surface. Use placemats for cutlery and plates to protect the material from potential damage and avoid dragging sharp objects across the tabletop.
• Avoiding Harsh Chemicals: Never use abrasive cleaners, ammonia-based products, or solvents, as they can damage the printed finish and potentially even the tempered glass.

Sizing Guide

Length: Measure the length of the wall or area where the console table will be placed. Ideally, your table should be about two-thirds of the wall's length or it should leave roughly 30cm on either side of the wall to achieve a balanced look without the table appearing lost or cramped.

Width: Measure the width of the hallway. Ensure at least 30-45 cm of clearance between your chosen table and any opposite walls or furniture. This allows for comfortable passage and prevents a crowded feel.

Consider Its Function:

• Entryway Console: If the console is intended to be a hallway table for holding keys, mail, or small items, opting for a narrower depth (30-40cm) is beneficial to ensure a practical and uncluttered entrance space.
• Living Room Console: In the living room, where the console is often a focal point for decorative items or cherished photos, consider a longer (100-120cm) and taller table. This provides an expansive surface for creating artful displays, allowing you to showcase your personal style.
• Behind the Sofa: Placing a console table behind the sofa can be a strategic design choice. To achieve a harmonious look, opt for a shorter table that complements the height of the sofa. The console table's width should be about two-thirds the length of your sofa to ensure the table doesn't block the view or disrupt the visual continuity in the room. 
• In the Bedroom: Choose a height that sits slightly above your bed frame for a cohesive look, and ensure the length of the table doesn't exceed the bed's width to maintain easy access and prevent a congested feel.
