Which is better, a marble or a glass dining table?

Marble suits buyers who want a heavy, natural stone top with veining, while glass suits buyers who want a light, see-through look. The right choice depends on your room, budget and how much care you can give.

Does marble stain more than glass?

Marble is a natural stone and can absorb spills if they are left on it, so wipe spills quickly. Glass does not absorb spills but shows fingerprints and water marks easily.

Do you sell glass top dining tables?

No. Our dining range uses marble and wooden tops. We describe glass here in general terms so you can compare.

What marble do your dining tables use?

Our product pages list either onyx marble or natural marble on an Indian teak wood (sagwan) frame with a PU polish. The marble type is written on each page.

What size are your marble dining tables?

Our pages list 6 seater tables at 3 ft by 5.5 ft and 4 seater tables at 3 ft by 4 ft, both 31 inches high.

Marble and glass are the two most popular dining table tops for a premium look. Marble brings natural veining and weight; glass brings a light, open feel. We make marble top dining tables, not glass ones, so this guide describes glass in general terms and gives you exact details only for what we sell.

Marble vs glass dining table at a glance

Look: marble shows natural stone veining, so no two tops look exactly alike. Glass is plain or tinted and lets you see the base.
Weight: a stone top is heavy and stays put; glass tops are generally lighter to move.
Spills: marble can absorb spills left on it, so wipe them quickly. Glass does not absorb, but it shows smudges and water marks.
Scratches and chips: both can mark with rough use. Use mats under hot dishes and heavy items on either top.

When a marble top makes sense

Choose marble if you want a statement dining table that feels solid and lasts as the centre of the room. Our marble tables sit on Indian teak wood (sagwan) frames with PU polish, and the marble type, onyx or natural marble, is listed on every product page. Read our marble top dining table care guide before you buy.

When a glass top may suit you better

Glass tops are often chosen for small rooms, because you can see through them and the room feels bigger. Ask any seller what type and thickness of glass is used and how the edges are finished, since this varies from table to table.
