|  | | Table Top Information
|   What size table top do you need? These charts show some standard industry measurements to aid you in selecting a top for your table base.
Be sure that at least 1/3 and preferably 1/2 of the table top you select will be supported by the table base you plan to use.
Allow approximately 24-26" for each place setting.
Allow 4-6" between each chair.

Copper Table Tops
Our hand hammered copper table tops are made from heavy 18 gauge copper, formed over a .75" thick sturdy exterior grade wooden subtop for indoor/outdoor use. They are additionally supported by a 5.25" wide x .75" thick structural ring of wood around the perimiter and across the base in an x shape. This support "backing" gives a 1.5" thick base with to attach the top to your desired frame.
Glass Table Tops:
Glass table tops are 1/2" thick glass with beveled or chamfered edges.
Marble Table Tops:
Copperstone and Travertine marble table tops are 3/4" thick and antiqued with a soft honed finish.
Stained Glass Mosaic Table Tops:
Our mosaic tabletops are made of stained glass and natural cement-like stone blend. The glass is hand cut into small square tiles, leaves, etc. Our unique process casts the glass pieces into the cement. This process leaves the tops and sides perfectly smooth, without any sharp or jagged pieces, and prevents the glass tiles from ever popping loose. Our mosaic table tops are made for both indoor and outdoor use. We do suggest, however, that you take them inside in the case of extreme cold or frost, just as you would statuary. Due to the natural expansion and contraction of cement in severe weather, hairline cracks may occur. To clean the table top, use a damp sponge with a non-abrasive cleaner and finish with a glass cleaner to bring a shine to the glass tiles. You may choose to seal the top with a petroleum based grout sealer to avoid any permanent staining. If tops are marked or bumped, fine sand paper may be used to remove the scuff.
Tumbled Marble Mosaic Tops:
(Interior and Exterior Use) Construction: Made from high grade underlayment materials, these tables are great for indoor and/or outdoor use. (For exterior use, you must have an exterior grade paint on the iron.) Embedded in an “Angle Bar” aluminum or iron ring with transverse supports, a cement/fiberglass compound board provides the structural rigidity for the table top. The marble is quarried from the most Southern reaches of Mexico and washed in baths of solution to age and tumble it to this beautifully organic look. Naturally occurring holes and broken edges of the mosaic tiles are expected and inherent to the design of these tops. (These are not Manufacturer’s defects.) The marble is set using the same techniques that stone and tile workers have used for centuries. A standard grout, fortified with latext to allow for various degrees of expansion and contraction, is applied to set the marble. There is no wood used in the construction of this top! All materials used in this table top will not degrade with exposure to water or to drastic swings in temperature alone. While the tops have been sealed with a stone and grout sealer at the Manufacturing facility, the marble will remain a porous material. With anticipation of atmospheric events in which there is both humidity (i.e. water within the top) coupled with freezing temperatures, the top should be brought indoors or covered before getting humid with a high-grade marine vinyl cover to keep water from penetrating and freezing from within. (The action of freezing and thawing is what can damage the top.)
