Know before you buy
The satin finish provides a smooth, matte appearance that is less prone to showing fingerprints than high-gloss marble. However, as with all natural stone, it is porous and should be wiped clean immediately after spills to prevent staining.
Yes, the weighted metal pedestal base is designed to provide a low center of gravity, ensuring the table remains stable on both hardwood floors and area rugs.
The 22.5-inch length provides ample room for a standard table lamp, a book, and a beverage. Its oval footprint is specifically designed to fit comfortably in tighter spaces where a round table might feel too bulky.
The table typically arrives in two main components—the top and the base—which require straightforward assembly. All necessary hardware and instructions are included to ensure a secure connection.
Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild, pH-neutral soap for routine cleaning. Avoid acidic cleaners, vinegar, or abrasive sponges, as these can etch or dull the natural stone surface over time.
