Bontempi Casa's advice for choosing the most suitable glass extendable tables for the living room, dining room and study.

Extendable glass tables and where to find them, or how to choose the most suitable models for each environment to furnish the home in a contemporary style. The table with glass top is a classic that never tires, whose design also lends itself to the most current interpretations. In the extendable version, then, it becomes the perfect union between elegance and practicality, demonstrating that even precious materials such as crystal lend themselves to the needs of everyone’s daily life.

Extendable glass tables for the living room

There is no doubt that extendable tables are the trump card to meet the needs of contemporary living, that are flexibility and functionality. The furniture must be able to adapt to the changing needs of daily life. In the living area, for example, we can be alone or as a couple on Mondays, invite a group of friends for the film club on Wednesdays, dedicate ourselves to an online drawing course or rearrange old photographs at the weekends… Extendable tables are designed precisely for this, and the extendable glass tables do it with a particular style. The glass top in fact showcases the structure, that can be characterized by a modern design or by a material that creates an interesting contrast, transforming the extendable table into the elegant protagonist of the scene.

Perfect for furnishing a home where the rustic style opens up to modernity, the Aron extendable table has a rectangular transparent glass top resting on a solid dark wood structure, a combination of materials of great effect. To complete the furniture with elegance, the essence can be taken up in the structure of the chairs to be placed around the table.

The opaque glass top of the Majesty extendable table, on the other hand, rests on a lacquered steel structure whose modern design recalls the industrial style. Also in this case, the matching chairs have the structure in the same material, and a shell covered in fabric that “warms” the temperature of the furniture.

Extendable glass dining tables

When there is a need to add a seat at the table for family reunions, birthdays or other special occasions, the extendable dining table is the ace in the hole to make everyone happy. The rectangular ones are the most common, but require larger rooms, while the round or square ones allow you to make use of the available space more easily. And what about the materials? Crystal-topped dining tables are solid and durable, light to move, and also easy to clean. In case of stains, in fact, it will be sufficient to intervene with a wet cloth. Instead, it is better to avoid intervening with oily, greasy products or thinners.

Modern glass tables for the study

For those who have a room dedicated to their profession, a table with a glass top is an excellent solution for decorating the environment by recreating the style of a real office. The ideal choice falls on modern, rectangular glass tables with a linear design steel structure. With the extendable top, the studio is always ready for meetings with the staff or to receive clients and discuss new projects comfortably seated around the table.
