This eye-catching addition to your outdoor living area is beautiful as well as useful, making it the best of both worlds. The Gloster Gem Side Table features a ceramic material that is made to last, even in the most severe weather. The octagonal shape of the 32-inch wide tabletop sets this piece apart from your typical coffee table.

Material Properties

Gloster ceramic table tops are made from a solid ceramic slab. Whilst the name suggests fragility, ceramic is actually harder than granite and is workable using techniques normally applied to glass and natural stone. Ceramic table tops are chemical resistant, fireproof, UV and heat resistant. Water absorption is close to zero, therefore, table tops are also completely frost-proof and weather resistant.

Cleaning

Although dirt cannot penetrate into the ceramic material, it is necessary to remove it from the surface in order to prevent the build-up of surface grease and contaminants. Day to day maintenance of ceramic table tops can be performed by simply wiping down using a clean, microfiber cloth and warm, diluted, neutral detergent to remove surface spillages. Spillages of wine, coffee, ketchup, oils and acidic substances such as vinegar should be wiped clean immediately. For intense cleaning and more regular maintenance we recommend using the Gloster Ceramic Care Kit.

Important Note

Split ceramic table tops are made from 10mm ceramic. Due to the design of the table, the edges of the table top overhang the base and are therefore unsupported at both ends and along the sides. Although ceramic is a strong material, it is not designed to take heavy weight over any unsupported lengths. Under no circumstances should any persons (including children) sit on the ends or sides of the table or climb onto the table top itself as this could cause the ceramic tops to break. Gloster is not liable for any damages or injuries as a result of such misuse.

From modular seating arrangements to dining tables and chairs, Gloster’s outdoor furniture combines sophisticated fabrics, powder-coated finishes, and sustainable Indonesian plantation-grown teak. 

Gloster’s roots go back to West Africa in 1960. By the late 1980s—due to increased demand and access to sustainable, plantation-grown teak—Gloster moved its factory to Indonesia. Today, Gloster is a leader in luxury outdoor furniture. All of Gloster’s teak furniture originates from ethically managed plantations, and a Gloster teak tree has a lifecycle of at least 50 years. The result is beautiful, sustainably sourced teak that will last through even the harshest weather conditions. 

What’s more, Gloster’s outdoor furniture is not the result of mass production; every piece boasts handmade quality and consistency. To ensure its furniture designs are just as top-tier as its materials, Gloster works with world-renown designers to create timeless outdoor furniture. Once a concept is approved, designers work closely with the development team at the Gloster factory to further perfect their designs.
