Riga Industrial 4 Seater Round Marble Effect Dining Table Black Metal Base 100cm

Tempered Glass with Marble Effect Vinyl Finish

Crafting a tempered glass table with a marble effect vinyl top is a multi-step process that marries modern materials for a sophisticated aesthetic. First, high-quality silica sand, along with other minerals and oxides, are precisely weighed and mixed to create the base glass composition. This mixture is then heated in large furnaces, transforming it into molten glass.

The formed glass undergoes a controlled cooling process called annealing which relieves internal stresses within the glass, making it more resistant to breakage. The annealed glass is then heated to a high temperature and rapidly cooled, known as the tempering process, making it 4-5 times stronger than regular glass. This ensures the glass is shatter-resistant, ideal for tabletops. 

A thin polyvinyl chloride film with a realistic marble pattern printed on it is used to achieve the desired marbling. The vinyl film is carefully applied to the clean and dust-free glass surface using a soapy water solution which allows for repositioning the film during application to ensure proper alignment and avoid air bubbles. Once the vinyl film is applied and secured, the edges of the tabletop are polished to create a smooth and finished look with a protective sealant added to the vinyl layer, enhancing its resistance to minor scratches, stains & daily wear.

Matte Black Powder Coated Metal Base

Our matte black metal table bases are crafted from precision and care. We start by shaping top-quality metal to meet our design specifications, ensuring a seamless alignment. Electrostatically charged matte black powder coats the base, and a baking process at 400°F creates the elegant finish. Slow cooling ensures lasting durability, resulting in a sophisticated matte black table base that resists wear and corrosion.

Care Guide

• Gentle Cleaning: For routine maintenance, use a soft, damp cloth or sponge to delicately wipe away dust and smudges from the surface. This ensures a clean and well-maintained appearance without the risk of scratching or damaging the table
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or ammonia-based products, as they can damage the vinyl film 
• Spills & Messes: Immediately blot up spills with a clean, absorbent cloth to prevent them from setting or staining. For tougher messes, use a damp microfiber cloth with mild soap and water
• Use Coasters & Placemats: Where possible, use coasters or placemats under hot dishes, glasses, and cutlery to prevent heat marks and scratches

Sizing Guide

• Space: Allow at least 90 cm (36 inches) of clearance between the table and the walls or other furniture to ensure comfortable seating and movement.
• Table Shape: For long rooms and open spaces, rectangular or oval tables often are the most natural fit, maximising space utilisation and creating a balanced look. Round or square tables can also work if you want to leave extra room for additional furniture pieces to complement your dining area. For smaller dining areas, round or square tables are often the ideal choice, promoting conversation and creating a sense of intimacy.
