A round glass coffee table with a metal base can be an attractive addition to your living room set-up. The clear glass top allows you to display lovely carpets and area rugs with minimal obstruction and the round top minimizes the chance of painful gouges from square corners. With that said, although glass tabletops are made from heavy-duty, heat-resistant, tempered glass, they do require some caution when in use.
The glass for your tabletop can be clear or frosted. This is largely a matter of taste and how it will blend with the rest of your furnishings. Tabletops should always be made from tempered glass.
Nothing cuts back on the beauty of glass faster than smudgy fingerprints, jelly smears or little kitty footprints. But you want to be careful when cleaning your lovely table. Before using any sort of moisture on the surface, wipe it down with a soft cloth. Those micro-cloths made for cleaning eyeglass lenses are great if you can get one that is large enough to do a meaningful job. Next, spritz it lightly with a mild spray cleaner. A mixture of one part white vinegar to two parts distilled water will do the job. Wipe it clean with newspaper or a lint-free cloth to avoid streaks. You can also use a foaming glass cleanser and wipe with a soft paper towel.
Since it will be quite visible, the composition of your metal base will be as important as selecting and caring for the glass top. It can be a simple brass, aluminum or black colored metal arranged in a T-square. This gives good support and stability. Color choice can blend with the rest of your furnishings or can make a contrasting statement. The metal base can also support a wood frame for the round glass tabletop. Alternatively, the base can be an intricate metal artwork that fully supports the tabletop.
Although most tabletops are made from tempered glass, which is a lot tougher than ordinary glass, they can break. If you like the look of glass keep three things in mind: glass can be scratched or abraded by moving something rough or something that has a sharp point across its surface; avoid jolting or jarring the glass, especially with an object that has some weight to it, such as a salt lamp or stone portrait bust; avoid exposing to extreme temperatures.
The good news is that tempered glass is designed to break into pebble-sized pieces rather than large, sharp shards. The bad news is that it is still glass, and it can break. One of the most common causes of breaking is that one side of the table is exposed to heat while the other side remains relatively cool. This can occur when the table is too close to a heat vent or to a plate glass window, or when a hot dish or cold drink is placed on it.
