Grey Tempered Glass Dining Table

Tempered glass dining tables are a contemporary and durable addition to modern dining spaces, combining style and resilience. The manufacturing process of our tempered glass begins with selecting thick, high-quality float glass, which offers superior clarity and minimal imperfections, ensuring a flawless visual experience. 

The cut glass piece undergoes a tempering process for enhanced strength and safety. This involves heating the glass to a high temperature (around 600°C) and then rapidly cooling it with air blasts. This process creates compressive stress on the surface of the glass, making it significantly resistant to breakage and shattering, boasting 4 to 5 times the durability of standard glass with improved minor scratch & heat resistance. After tempering, the edges of the glass are polished to create a smooth and finished look.

Key Benefits (Table)

• Safety & Durability: Tempered glass is significantly stronger and safer than regular glass. It undergoes a special heat treatment process, making it four to five times more resistant to breakage and minor scratches & heat damage, ideal for busy households and high-traffic dining areas.
• Contemporary Aesthetics: Tempered glass offers a sleek and modern aesthetic that seamlessly complements various interior styles. Its clean lines and reflective nature add a touch of sophistication to your dining space, enhancing the overall contemporary appeal.
• Easy Maintenance: The smooth and non-porous surface of tempered glass makes it incredibly easy to clean. Spills, stains, and marks can be effortlessly wiped away, keeping your dining table in pristine condition with minimal effort.
• Environmentally Friendly: Tempered glass is an eco-friendly material that can be recycled and repurposed, reducing the demand for new resources and energy consumption.
• Enhanced Ambiance: Coloured glass can create a specific mood or atmosphere in the room. Lighter colours like white can evoke a sense of cosiness, while cooler tones like grey or black can promote a feeling of calm and tranquillity.
• Subtle Statement Piece: While offering neutrality, grey glass isn't as stark as white, allowing it to act as a subtle statement piece within the space. It adds a touch of personality without overwhelming the overall décor.

Care Guide (Table)

• Regular Dusting: Use a soft, lint-free cloth to dust the table's surface regularly to prevent the buildup of particles.
• Wipe with a Damp Cloth: For light cleaning, dampen a clean cloth with warm, soapy water, and gently wipe the glass. Rinse with a damp, clean cloth, and then dry with a lint-free cloth.
• Remove Spills Promptly: If any spills occur, blot them up immediately with a clean, damp cloth to prevent staining or etching on the glass.
• Use a Glass Cleaner: For a more thorough cleaning, apply a glass cleaner designed for glass and wipe with a lint-free cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or materials that may scratch the surface.
• Protect from Heat and Moisture: Despite our tempered glass being more minor scratch & heat resistant to standard glass, we recommend using coasters or placements for hot dishes, plates & cutlery to safeguard it from potential heat damage and scratches. This simple step contributes to maintaining the table's pristine surface over the years.

Velvet Upholstered Dining Chairs

Velvet upholstery is a luxurious and highly sought-after choice for dining chairs due to its exceptional tactile qualities and elegant visual appeal. Our velvet is made from a carefully curated blend of polyester and cotton fibres, and the manufacturing process involves weaving these fibres into a dense pile fabric.

What sets our velvet apart is the specific method of weaving we use which results in its hallmark soft and plush texture. This process creates a series of closely spaced, evenly cut loops on the fabric's surface, which we then shear to create a smooth, dense pile. The loops and their uniform distribution are key to velvet's characteristic feel and shimmering appearance. 

The result is a fabric that exudes opulence and sophistication, making it a popular upholstery choice for those looking to infuse a touch of luxury into their dining spaces. Our velvet upholstery undergoes rigorous testing to ensure its durability, preventing issues like bobbling or fraying over time, making it a reliable choice for long-lasting dining chair upholstery.

High Density Foam Cushioning

When it comes to dining chairs, comfort reigns supreme. High-density foam plays a crucial role in achieving that perfect balance between plushness and support, ensuring hours of comfortable dining experiences

Crafting high-density foam for dining chairs involves an extensive process designed to achieve a densely packed yet weight-absorbing structure. High-quality polyurethane with a specific chemical composition is used as the base material. The PU is mixed with additives and undergoes a controlled chemical reaction, causing it to expand and solidify. Precise temperature and pressure control are crucial for achieving the desired density. The cured foam is carefully cooled and stabilised to ensure it retains its shape and density.

Unlike lower-density foams, high-density options resist flattening and maintain their shape over time. This ensures your chairs remain comfortable and supportive throughout their lifespan. High-density foam provides better support for your body, distributing weight evenly and minimising pressure points. This translates to reduced fatigue and increased comfort, even during extended dining sessions.

Key Benefits (Chairs)

• Enhanced Stain Resistance: The fabric undergoes treatments to make it more resistant to stains, making it a practical choice for dining chairs. Minor accidental spills are easier to clean, preventing long-term damage and maintaining the chairs' aesthetic appeal.
• High Abrasion Resistance: Our polyester velvet boasts a Martindale rub count around 50,000, exceeding industry standards for heavy-duty use. This translates to exceptional resistance to pilling, fraying and tearing, making it ideal for high-traffic dining areas and frequent use.
• Soft & Plush Texture: The densely woven pile creates a luxuriously soft and inviting surface, providing exceptional comfort while seated. This is further enhanced by the inherent suppleness of polyester fibres, which drape and conform to the body for added comfort.
• Breathable Fabric: Despite its dense pile, our polyester velvet exhibits good breathability, allowing air to circulate and preventing excessive heat build-up, especially during warmer months. This contributes to a more comfortable dining experience.
• Low Maintenance: The smooth, non-porous surface of polyester velvet resists dust and dirt accumulation, making it easy to maintain. Regular vacuuming with an upholstery attachment is sufficient for removing dust and debris.
• Fire Retardancy: Our polyester velvet fabric is fire-resistance tested, complying with the UK fire safety standards for your peace of mind.
• Chrome Detailing Accents: Enhance your dining area with our chairs showcasing an exquisite lion-head chrome knocker, studded chrome lining and lustrous chrome legs, adding a touch of sophistication and luxury to your decor.
• Superior Comfort: Embrace the ergonomic design of this chair, designed for your well-being. The combination of a slightly curved back and plush foam cushioning provides a wellness-focused seating solution, promoting comfort and healthy sitting habits during every meal.

Care Guide (Chairs)

• General Cleaning: Avoid using harsh chemicals or detergents, as they can damage the fabric and cause fading. Spot cleaning is recommended for most stains. Avoid overall washing, as it can shrink or distort the fabric.
• Spot Cleaning: Address spills promptly by blotting the affected area with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid rubbing, as it can push the spill deeper into the fabric. For liquid spills, use a paper towel to soak up as much as possible before blotting.
• Gentle touch: Avoid using harsh brushes or abrasive cleaning tools, as they can damage the delicate fibres. 
• Use Mild Cleaning Agents: Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or strong cleaning agents on velvet dining chairs to prevent fabric damage, colour fading, and texture alteration. Opt for gentle, water-based cleaning solutions and always test in a small, inconspicuous area before application to ensure compatibility.
• Occasional Vacuuming: Vacuum your velvet chairs occasionally to help remove deeper dirt, dust mites and pet hair that can accumulate in the fabric. Use the lowest suction setting on your vacuum cleaner & always vacuum in the direction of the nap to avoid damaging the fibres and pay extra attention to the seams and crevices where dirt can accumulate.

Sizing Guide

Chair Spacing: Maintain a space of at least 15cm between dining chairs to prevent overcrowding. Adequate spacing allows diners to move in and out of their seats easily, promoting a more enjoyable and functional dining experience. Consider the overall dimensions of the dining area when determining the optimal chair spacing.

Space to Move: Leave around 60cm between the chair back and your wall. This allows you and your guests to sit comfortably and manoeuvre without feeling cramped. Proper proximity ensures a seamless dining experience, allowing people to access their seats with ease.

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.

Number of Chairs: Assess the available space around the dining table to determine the practical number of chairs that can comfortably fit. Consider the table's size, shape, and room dimensions to ensure adequate spacing between chairs for both visual appeal and ease of movement. Below is a general guide, but these are flexible dependent on the chair size and desired level of comfort:

Rectangular Tables

• 100cm or below: 4 people
• 110cm-170cm: 4-6 People
• 180cm-220cm: 6-8 People
• 230cm and above: 10+ People
