Glass is a practical material for a dining table as it’s strong, spill resistant and easy to care for. You should only ever use recommended cleaning products. Vinegar or specialist products can be used to make the glass shine, but using a soft dry cloth or even a dry tea towel can also make it sparkle and remove water marks and residue from cleaning. To maintain the shine and the smooth surface of glass, avoid abrasive cloths and cleaning materials.

All our glass is tempered or reinforced and meets with British Safety Standards BS6202. However, we recommend that you ensure that any glass furniture is made visible – by placing books on a glass coffee table, for example – so that nobody walks into it. Also, just a reminder that placing glass surfaces under direct light can reveal the polishing process in the form of small scratches.

Never move or carry an extending table while the extension leaves are in use – always return the table to its unextended position first. And remember that inserting or removing the extra leaves of an extending table is a two-person job. To prevent injury and property damage from unexpected tipping of furniture, we highly recommend installation of anti-tip kits, if supplied with your furniture and for any piece of furniture over 600mm in height. As hardware may loosen overtime, periodically check that all connections are tight, and re-tighten as necessary.
