Flat to the touch but rippled to the eye, the tempered glass top of this gold-tone coffee table has a wavy visual texture while staying easy to wipe down and resistant to heat. The metal frame carries 210 lbs in total: 100 lbs on the 35.5 x 20 inch glass surface and 110 lbs on the 32.5 x 18.5 inch lower shelf, which holds books, magazines or a folded throw 13 inches below the top. Suction cups hold the glass in place, and adjustable foot pads level the 18.5-inch-tall frame on uneven floors. At 16 lbs the table is light to move, and the open frame keeps a small living room feeling airy. The lower rail sits 4 inches above the floor. Assembly is required.
