Buying Guide

If you have seen or heard about this style of dining table, you might think it sounds like the perfect option for your home. As the name gives away, the table has a wooden base and an elegant glass top, providing a modern and sleek contrast between a solid sturdy wooden material and the lighter and more delicate glass. Here are some popular designs you might want to consider when shopping.

It's not as though there's just one type of wooden base that you'll see for dining tables, so let's look closer at some of the designs available.

  • Wigwam style: This consists of four slim yet sturdy oak wooden legs which join together at the top to create a wigwam style. The criss cross design is interesting and unique, particularly if you want to buy a feature dining table.
  • Chunky: Two large chunky pieces of pine wood cross over in an 'X' shape to create a modern chunky base for your glass table. The pieces are generally sloping and slightly curved in style to allow for maximum stability and style.
  • Driftwood: Straying away from the more conventional style of wooden base, the driftwood base is an interesting style consisting of multiple pieces of driftwood around 1-2 feet in length. The pieces are aligned so that the top of them can provide a solid flat base for any glass top. The driftwood may be organized in lines or wrapped and crossed around each other for a natural design.
  • Tree trunk: Another natural look for the wooden base is the tree trunk design. A wood such as araraquara is often used to create this effect, which looks like a glass table top positioned on a small tree trunk.
  • Weaved base: Made using a solid wooden base and then finished with the weave design, this style is modern and simple while being practical and beautiful. The glass top sits on top of the weaved 'basket' style base.

Once you've decided what type of base you want, it's type to look at the size and shape of the glass top that you may have for the dining table. There are many pre-designs you choose from, or some suppliers will allow you to request certain sizes and cuts of glass.

  • Hexagonal: A good choice for the driftwood base or tree trunk where you may feel like everything is not quite perfectly aligned. By choosing a glass table top with more edges, you'll avoid the clash between the chaotic driftwood and a sleek and defined table top.
  • Round: One of the most popular shapes to buy for a glass table top, this is perfectly circular in shape which allows for maximum flexibility of seating arrangements at the table. Circular tables are also more likely to fit into any part of the dining room, making it a versatile choice if you haven't quite made up your mind yet.
  • Square and rectangular: Ultra modern and with a defined shape, a rectangular glass table top suits a chunky base. They are normally around 3-4ft wide and 6ft long, although you will find various sizes available to suit your home.
