As the place where you spend the most time as a family, sharing meals and making memories, the dining room is one of the most important rooms in your home. You deserve a dining table that is both beautiful and functional for your family. A custom glass tabletop is a timeless and elegant solution for your dining table. Here are some things to consider when choosing a custom glass tabletop.
One of the most important decisions you need to make is deciding the size and shape of your custom glass tabletop. You should first determine how many people you need to accommodate and what shape would be best suited for your dining room. When it comes to shape, a rectangular or oval table will provide plenty of seating, while a square or round table will be more intimate for smaller groups to interact.
Once you have decided on size and shape, you can start looking at different styles of custom glass. You can customize the thickness, finish, color or polish on a table to suit your needs and fit with the style and décor of your dining room. A thinner glass will provide a more delicate and refined look whereas a thicker glass will provide a more durable table better suited for heavy use.
Some custom glass tabletops are made with clear glass, while others have etchings or designs on them. You can also choose to have a custom glass table top that is tinted. Tempered glass is a great option if you need a stronger table, especially if you have kids. The possibilities are endless when it comes to custom glass, so take your time finding the perfect one for your home.
