Glass Living Room Tables
A living room table will often be the focal point of the room. Make yours modern and stylish with a modern glass design. Glass is often the preferred surface for a coffee table since it will not be damaged by accidental spills, is very easy to wipe clean and in most settings will look great. Some are see through, whereas others can be frosted or translucent but this really depends on your taste, or the style of the room. Rarely is the entire table made of glass, as this would make it very heavy, instead designers usually opt for wooden or plastic frames with a glass top.
People tend to think that glass is fragile, but the glass tops in living room tables are made of toughened or tempered glass, which will resist all but the heaviest of items being dropped on them.
From small, multi-level tables made of thin panes of glass, to a long multi-purpose table with a thick glass top, there's a wealth of choice. Traditional looking tables can be infused with contemporary designs for that unique look your living room is in need of.

Glass is very versatile, as it can be cut into almost any shape imaginable, particularly with modern laser cutters. They can even have ornate designs etched into the surface and coloured to suit any room.
Glass tables can look very decorative and eye catching as the focal point of your room. Smaller glass tables can add a subtle tone to the room, fitting in with whatever existing furniture.
