Questions About Reverse Glass Tables
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    The first step in reverse glass painting is to select your design and to transfer it to a pane of glass. From there you can paint in your design. Once the paint is dry and set, you can proudly display your artwork from the unpainted side that will have no exposed paint and will be less prone to chipping.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Reverse painting on glass is called verre églomisé. The term gets its name from the 18th-century decorator Jean-Baptiste Glomy who became famous for his reverse-painted glass prints. On 1stDibs, you can shop a collection of verre églomisé furniture and jewelry.
  • 1stDibs ExpertJune 30, 2023
    With a glass table, avoid putting anything on top heavier than the recommended weight capacity of the table. Items with rough or sharp bottoms could scratch glass. If you wish to display an item on top of a glass table, line the bottom of the item with felt to protect the tabletop. On 1stDibs, shop a range of glass tables from some of the world's top sellers.
  • 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023
    Whether glass coffee tables are durable depends on the craftsmanship and the materials. Generally, tables with tempered glass are less likely to shatter and break. How well you care for a coffee table will also impact its life span. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of glass coffee tables.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    Yes, you should put glass on top of your dining table to minimize scratches and wear. Glass allows you to see the beauty of the wood while protecting it from everyday wear.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 5, 2021
    The best thickness for a glass table top depends on usage. If the glass is used just as a cover, then ¼-inch thick glass is likely good enough. If the glass will be used is as a table surface, then you should choose the thickness of the glass according to the size of the table. If the glass used is supporting heavy items, or its size is more than 24 inches, then choose glass that is thicker than ¼ inch. Thicker glass will feel and look more substantial, but thicker glass becomes heavier with increasing size. On 1stDibs, find antique and vintage glass-top dining room tables, glass-top coffee tables, side tables and more.
  • 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023
    Whether a glass or acrylic coffee table is better is a matter of personal preference. An acrylic table is less likely to shatter and often lighter in weight, while a glass coffee table may have a more prominent shine. How carefully a coffee table is crafted also impacts its quality and longevity. On 1stDibs, shop a range of coffee tables.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 3, 2023
    You can substitute a number of things for a glass table top. Try painted wood, marble or sheet metal. To decide what to use, consider the overall style of your room and the other types of materials featured in the space. Shop a selection of tables from some of the world's top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 3, 2023
    Whether a glass table is better for small spaces is largely a matter of personal opinion. However, many people find that a transparent glass table creates the illusion of a larger room and makes a compact area feel more spacious. Shop a variety of glass tables on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 28, 2021
    The most preferred type of glass for a coffee table is tempered glass. In case of a mishap, this type of glass will fracture into small pieces. One-half inch thick glass is the most popular for coffee tables. 1stDibs offers different antique, vintage and new glass coffee tables.
