Glass and metal coffee tables: cool aesthetics for modern living rooms

For those who prefer a sophisticated, cool aesthetic, a glass and metal coffee table is ideal. These two materials symbolize elegance and progress, making them ideal for modern living rooms.

What advantages does a coffee table made of metal and glass offer?

Each material exudes a certain ambience and awakens certain associations. Often, therefore, the combination of two materials produces a special effect: The contrast between the two materials produces an interesting tension and dynamic. This is also the case with the metal and glass coffee table: metal stands for stability and is associated in a special way with the earth. Glass, on the other hand, is light and fleeting - it is more like air. A glass and metal coffee table balances the effect of the two materials: it appears stable and safe, but not too powerful.

At the same time, the two materials harmonize exceptionally well. Because both glass and metal stand for clarity and straightforwardness. Metal and glass coffee tables are therefore ideal for environments that have a progressive, puristic look.

Glass and metal coffee tables in many designs: square, round or rectangular?

When buying a coffee table not only the material plays an important role, after all, the shape of the table must also correspond to your own taste. At DREIECK DESIGN you have the choice between a multitude of glass and metal coffee tables - in a wide variety of designs and shapes. Whether round, square or rectangular: The main thing is that the look appeals to you and that the furniture fits well into its environment.

Variant 1: round

Our coffee tables with a circular table top are in the truest sense of the word a rounded matter. Especially as a coaster for plants or decorative objects round coffee tables are very useful - it is very effective to combine several tables in different heights.

One of our coffee tables, which is round and made of glass and metal, is the model NEX by designer Jürgen Sohn. The glass plate rests on a foot of solid metal and has a circular base plate. NEX is available as standard in three different heights, but on request it is also possible to manufacture an individual custom-made table with the desired height.

A special extra feature of the round glass coffee table SLIDE: The foot made of high quality steel is height-adjustable, so that the table can flexibly vary in height between 46 and 76 centimeters. Thus, SLIDE can be used for different purposes and can serve as a coffee table, side table or dining table.

Variant 2: square and practical

A coffee table made of metal and glass, which has square form, fits perfectly in U-shaped seating landscapes. Due to the uniform side length, the couch is everywhere equidistant from the edge of the table.

A prime example of the square metal and glass coffee table is the MILES model by designer Helmut Koppenhagen: beneath the square tabletop is an innovative cross-shaped base in polished steel. Here, the pedestal can be mounted either in a rectangular orientation or as a diagonal of the square top plate.

Variant 3: classic - rectangular

The rectangular coffee table is a real classic among the living room furniture. For example, with two sofas facing each other, a rectangular table fits particularly well in between. In front of a single couch or in an elongated couch corner, a rectangular metal and glass coffee table is also outstanding. However, you should make sure that the table does not extend beyond the ends of the sofas.

Stainless steel is an alloy of iron and has a small amount of carbon. Due to its stability and strength it is a very common material in all imaginable applications. Many of our glass coffee tables are equipped with a foot or connecting part made of stainless steel, which gives the furniture a high stability - for example the model MILES by Helmut Koppenhagen or the design SIRIUS and SIRIUS DOUBLE.

For this reason, numerous glass coffee tables from our collection also have high-quality stainless steel components - such as the DAVIS or NEX models. It is up to your taste whether you opt for the matt brushed or the glossy polished version.
