One of the reasons why a glass top dining table is such an eye-catching object is with a clear glass top the base of the table design can be seen. So the base can be exquisitely carved and sculpted and the beauty of it will shine through the glass on top. You can even get creative and customize the table. An amazing way to do so would be to get a small aquarium attached to the bottom so that you can see all the fishes at play while you have dinner! But you will need to be really careful with the maintenance and care of such a table.

While the glass which is being used on the glass top dining table can vary, so can the material being used as the foundation. You can choose from frosted, clear or textured glass for the table top. For the base, you can choose between wood, metal, stone or wood substitutes like plywood and so on. A classically carved solid wooden base in the shape of a lion with a transparent glass top is ideal for a bit of grandeur. For an evergreen choice, go for a beautiful slab of black glass over heavy granite pillars. But if modern is your thing, get a smart looking metallic finish table with frosted glass on top.

The prices of these tables can vary a lot depending on the materials used. So while the granite and colored glass combination will go for over $ 1200, the metal glass top dining table can cost about $ 300. The wood base table with a huge slab of glass on the top can cost over $ 600.

As I’m sure all of us can understand, as in anything, quality is a very important factor when considering the price of a console table. The better the quality of the table, the more expensive it will be. Quality is one of those factors that it is almost impossible to neglect in any case. The only good thing about this is that many times, sellers cannot evaluate the quality of the table precisely so there are many bargains out there to find.

Condition of the console table

Console tables are generally strong pieces of furniture. Even though that is true, they also need a certain amount of care. There are tables that can withstand almost anything but there are others that are very delicate and may suffer from many things such as age, weather conditions or negligence. This is very important for your collection as well. It is not enough just to collect the correct pieces. You need to understand that you need to be able to take care of your collection in such a way, that all of your pieces will remain in a good condition. Even the smallest crack can reduce the value of a table heavily. This needs both time and money and you need to know this before you start collecting. The condition of a console table is not always obvious for someone without experience. A console table can seem to be in a good condition and in reality it can be fairly damaged.

At this point I have to add a very important thing. If you are serious about your console table collection, then there are two choices for you. The first one is that you can study and conduct research around the subject so that you gain the appropriate knowledge about every aspect of your collection. This is definitely very time consuming but, if you are serious about it, you will find out that you will learn some very interesting things. The other option you have is to hire an expert to work for you when you consider buying a piece. A console table expert is someone who will provide you with tons of help. They know everything that one needs to know about the subject and they will be able to evaluate your options and let you know which the best way to go is. My opinion, however, is that the best choice is to learn yourself. You may not be able to reach the level of an expert very soon, but after a while you will also become a console table expert yourself and no one will be able to trick you into buying something that is just not worth it.

Colored Glass Top Dining Table

Now this one is tricky. A colored glass top dining table can look amazing if you place it in the correct environment but it can also look weird and funny if you don’t.

It is not rare that you see a colored glass top dining table in a house and you immediately think that it is just too much. So be careful. On the other hand, such a table can also look amazing if dealt with care and thought. It would fit perfectly in a very modern house. When deciding on the color, you should always consider the color of your dining room walls and also the color of other furniture in there. For a centerpiece you should use either something very simple or something really extravagant. Remember, a colored glass top dining table may look great but try not to overdo it. About the base or legs, well again you should be very careful. I would say that a safe choice would be a black base made either of metal or glass. It may sound as a safe choice but trust me; your colored glass top dining table will look amazing if you attach such a base to it.

These are the types of glass top dining tables I will suggest for today. There are much more to be explained and much more to be suggested.

White Dining Table

Well here we are again. This time I am going to discuss the different types of glass top dining tables that exist in the market for tables. Everyone wants a glass top dining table for their house but almost everyone feels that it costs money that if you think about it, it is not worth. Well I’m here to prove you wrong. A glass top dining table will be an investment you will be happy you have made for the rest of your lives. I will prove to you that these tables never wear out and that they can give you the memories of a lifetime. Let’s talk about the different types of glass top dining tables that are out there waiting for you and your family.

Frosted Glass Top Dining Table

A frosted glass top dining table is a table that its top is not clear. You get the feeling that it is made of ice as it has that icy grey color. This color is perfect for a house that with either very dark or very light colors. I wouldn’t recommend it though if your house furniture is somewhere in the middle. It’s not that it wouldn’t still look good but in my opinion you should use it only if it looks amazing. A frosted glass top dining table as any other table comes in various different shapes and sizes concerning its top and legs. The decision about which one to choose, however, again will depend on the environment you want to place the table in. A frosted glass top dining table is the latest fashion in glass top dining tables so I would suggest that you also accompany your table with a very modern centerpiece. Always try to be simple however.

Clear Glass Top Dining Table

This is always the simplest choice. This doesn’t mean however that it doesn’t look equally amazing. The biggest difference between a clear glass top dining table and the rest is that it fits perfectly in any environment. Even though what I just said is true, in my opinion, the best flooring to go with such a table is marble. What you should also do is place your new table close to a source of sunlight. You will be able to see that such a place will provide your house with twice the amount of brightness it use to have and the reason is simple. The glass reflects sunlight beautifully. Again as a frosted glass top dining table, a clear glass one comes in every shape and size. There is only one suggestion I can make here and again this is my own opinion. I believe that it is simple and safe to stick with the type of floor you house has concerning the base. As I always say, this is only a suggestion. It may be the case that your house looks amazing with a different type of table so make sure to find what suits you best.

Modern Console Table

As promised in the previous article, I have made one about two other very important aspects of a console table. Material and size are just as important as color and shape and they can sometimes be even more important to say the truth. Make sure to read everything so that you can choose wisely.

The material your console table is made of

In this case, “normally” or “usually” are not words that I can use. There are thousands of different designs of console tables and almost all of them are made with a different set of material. You can choose to go for glass top with metal legs, marble top with marble legs, glass top with glass legs or you can even choose a console table made entirely of wood. There are two things to consider here. The first and most important is to check which material is dominant in the room your doorway leads to. My opinion is that your console table should be made of that material. The second thing you need to consider is what your floor is made of. There is nothing prettier than a marble console table on a floor made of marble. On the other hand, for example, a wood console table would not look as pretty. Probably the safest choice for a console table is glass top with metallic legs, but that’s just my opinion, so search and find the one you like best.

The size of your console table

This part is a little tricky. The size of your console table is a matter you need to give some attention to. Make sure that you choose to buy a console table that fits perfectly on the wall you want to place it towards. I would suggest that you measure all the dimension of the table to make sure that there is enough space in front of the table and on the sides so that it doesn’t block any path or your door.

These are the main things to consider when buying a console table. Make sure to be patient and look around enough to find a console table that you love as it can stay by your door for years to come. It is a wonderful piece of furniture and there is a spectacular variety of products to choose from. Make sure that you don’t rush into any decision to buy a console table before you follow carefully the steps I outlined in the article. Have fun searching, and always remember that a piece of furniture is always an investment, so don’t hesitate to put your hand deep in your pocket. A console table of good quality can be used forever.
