Know before you buy
The table is crafted from Glass Reinforced Concrete (GRC). This material is specifically engineered for outdoor use, offering high durability and resistance to the elements while maintaining a solid, sculptural weight.
The table weighs 92 lbs. Its substantial mass makes it exceptionally stable and unlikely to tip over or shift during high winds, making it a reliable choice for exposed patios or decks.
The Gesso finish is designed for outdoor durability, but like any outdoor piece, it should be kept clean by wiping it down with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners to preserve the integrity of the finish.
Yes, at 21 inches high, it is well-proportioned for use as a side table next to standard outdoor lounge chairs or sofas. Its rectangular surface provides ample space for drinks, books, or small decorative items.
While it is designed specifically for outdoor environments, its transitional style and sculptural aesthetic make it a versatile piece that can easily transition into a sunroom, covered porch, or even a modern interior living space.
