Hard-Wearing Ceramic Tabletop

Ceramic is a type of material known for its exceptional durability and versatility. Our ceramic is manufactured by heating natural clay, minerals, and other raw materials at high temperatures, which leads to a dense, hard, and non-porous surface. This process hardens the ceramic, removes moisture, and enhances its strength and durability.

Once fired, the ceramic base is ground and polished to achieve a smooth and level surface. This step ensures the surface is prepared for the lacquer application. Multiple layers of a high-gloss lacquer are applied to the ceramic base. This lacquer is specially formulated to mimic the appearance of real marble, incorporating pigments and textures to achieve realistic marble veining and patterns. Each layer is allowed to dry thoroughly before applying the next.

After the final lacquer layer is applied, the entire table undergoes a curing process to ensure the lacquer hardens completely and achieves its optimal gloss and durability.

Key Benefits

Durability: Ceramic dining tables are renowned for their exceptional durability. Resistant to heat, scratches, and staining, ceramic surfaces withstand the rigours of daily use, ensuring longevity and preserving the table's pristine appearance over time.
High density: The firing process during manufacturing results in a dense and compact material, contributing to its strength and durability.
Realistic Stone Aesthetic: The high gloss marble effect finish on ceramic tables imparts a luxurious and sophisticated appearance, showcasing intricate veining and patterns emulating the timeless beauty of natural marble, adding a touch of opulence to your dining space.
Easy Maintenance: The non-porous surface resists stains, and a simple wipe with a damp cloth is sufficient for routine cleaning. This ease of maintenance ensures that the table remains a source of beauty without requiring extensive care, contributing to a hassle-free dining experience.
Affordability: Ceramic marble tables offer a cost-effective alternative to natural marble while delivering the same luxurious appearance. This affordability makes them accessible to a broader range of budgets, allowing you to enjoy the aesthetic appeal of marble without the premium price tag & demanding maintenance.

Extension Mechanism

The extending variant features a user-friendly ball bearing glide mechanism, seamlessly incorporating a hidden central panel underneath. To extend, simply pull the table apart, revealing a discreet panel nestled underneath. As you pull, the panel will rise to the same level as the tabletop. A click confirms its secure lock, after which you can push the two halves back together to create a smooth and continuous surface, creating space for 2 extra guests when needed. To return the table back to its original size, simply pull the table outwards, and the ball bearing glide mechanism will allow the central panel to sink back down, as you push the two halves back together.

Stainless Steel Base

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

Regular Cleaning: Maintain the table's sheen by regularly wiping it with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn stains, a mild cleaning solution can be used, avoiding abrasive cleaners to preserve the high gloss finish.
Coasters & Placemats: While ceramic tables are resilient, using coasters under glasses and placing hot dishes on placemats or trivets is a good practice. This prevents potential heat damage and helps preserve the table's surface over time.
Prompt Spill Cleanup: Promptly clean up spills to prevent staining. The non-porous nature of ceramic helps resist absorption, but swift action ensures the table stays pristine.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Never use harsh cleaners, scouring pads, acidic products like vinegar or citrus juice, or bleach on your ceramic marble table. These can damage the lacquer finish and potentially even the ceramic itself.

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.
