On Buying Tulip Tables

Not only will you be experiencing a timeless classic, you will also be experiencing the revolutionary way of sitting around your table, the lack of legs! With its beautiful single pedestal base, the design was way ahead of its time and, in some ways, it still is, and allows all users to sit comfortably around it. Once you sit at it, you will never want to sit at any other table again! This design style gives the table an effortless symmetry coupled with superior functionality creating a symbiosis of function and form which we think is exceptionally stylish.

There are 5 marble types you can buy, you can read all about them on our dedicated page for them here

No problem at all, just get in contact with us and we will be able to go through with you what size you would like to change for and in what finish too. This may only be available within the UK due to the logistics involved.

Of course! The range in size, beginning with the comfortable 90cm round table and going all the way through to the 244 x 137 cm oval table means this perfect design can fit into any dining room space you may have.

If you are looking for a comfortable table that will seat up to 10 people then our 244cm x 137cm oval dining table is the perfect choice. Available with a choice of arm or side chairs and a wonderful array of table finishes, we are sure to have something that caters for your needs.

Our 198cm x 120cm (6.5 feet x 3.93 feet) oval dining table will sit 8 side chairs, but if you need a larger option for that little bit more space, our 244cm x 137cm (8 feet x 4.5 feet) table provides that little bit more comfort whilst you and your friends or family enjoy that all important time together.

We offer a selection of choices to cater for your kitchen or dining table needs if you are looking to seat 6 people. We have our largest round table option, measuring 120cm in diameter, which sits 6 Tulip Side chairs, and we also have our oval tables scaling in size from 170cm x 110cm, 198cm x 120cm and 244cm x 137cm which can easily cater for 6 people for your comfort; these sizes very much cater for you depending on the size of your room you need a table for.

Sadly, no. All of our table tops come into us safely crated
and packaged for delivery and the opening of this crate can jeopardise the safety of the table before it is delivered. We do have a wide range of images we can provide to give you an idea of what the table top could be like, but the wonderful quality of Mother Nature herself means every table top is unique and has its own wonderful character.

We would not advise using any of our products outside. The original, intended, purpose of the design was for indoor use only due to the nature of the materials used and we very much stand by this original ethos to best ensure the longevity of your table. Being a natural stone, the natural elements will change the appearance to the table top and could cause staining on the surface; they are designed as indoor items only.

Yes, please get in contact with our expert sales team and they will be able to go through this with you.

We do not do bespoke sizes of tables; we very much strive to
emulate the original specifications of this wonderful design and fully believe that, with the set measurements that these wonderful tables were made to, there is a table in our range for any environment and space requirements.

ON BUYING TULIP CHAIRS

Definitely. The Tulip Chair has been around since the 1950's and has had no change in its shape or design in all of its time and with good reason; these are unmistakably comfortable chairs. Whether you choose the arm or side, either come with a luxurious cushion that allows you to sink into the chair and the expertly crafted curve of the back rest supports the body comfortably.

Yes. The original Tulip Chair was offered as either a swivel or fixed chair and we offer them in exactly the same way and they can be found here.

The practicality of the swivel chair is exceptional. Many
standard dining chairs do not include this feature, but the Tulip Chair does and it allows you to easily access and leave the chairs without having to move them away from the table.

Due to its timeless and effortless design, the Tulip Chair has seen constant popularity and has always been seen to be ‘in style’ and its uniquely revolutionary design featuring the swivel function means this striking chair is still ahead of its time even today.

Swivel chairs are not for everyone, the main disadvantage being that it can mean the chair all too easily knocks against the table
causing damage to each, but the beauty of the Tulip Chair is that it is also available as a fixed chair too which negates this fear. It must be noted that, as we all know to be the case, these sorts of things can be enjoyed by kids as playthings, this is not best encouraged on this wonderful design as we would not like either of them to be damaged in any way.

Without a doubt, the best chairs for the Tulip Table are the
Tulip Chairs that were designed alongside it and which we also offer in the wonderful fibreglass finish they were once produced in.

Yes. Much like the original chair, ours are made from fibreglass
reinforced plastic mounted on a cast aluminium base which is available either in a swivel or fixed capacity.

Yes, please get in contact with our expert sales team and they will be able to go through this with you.

ORIGIN AND CARE QUESTIONS

All of our items are produced in Italy and are then shipped
over to the UK. To ensure the safest delivery, the table tops are all wood crated and rested in thick polystyrene which is best left completely contained before delivery takes place.

Marble is a natural stone which has been carefully honed and
polished to make it into the wonderful pieces you find in our dining table and sets section. Whilst tough, it, like many things, still needs the right care and attention to keep it looking new. We have our own dedicated aftercare section to help keep your table looking its absolute best!

Naturally, over time and use, all things can benefit from a good clean and the best way we advise to do this is by using the supplied marble/granite cleaner provided in your complimentary care kit. It is always advisable, even with the sealer applied, to clean up any spills or dirty areas as soon as possible. Warm, lightly soapy, water can be good for those slightly harder marks. To work on slightly more stubborn stains; if something has been left for a while, you can use; though very gently, bicarbonate of soda and water with a clean, soft, cloth to gently wipe (not scrub) the affected area but this must be done very quickly to not let the mixture ‘sink’ into the table. To give it that finishing touch, you can also gently re-polish the table through the use of 0000 grade wire wool and marble wax. Simply apply the wax to a section of wire wool and work into the table surface until it is smeared over the surface. With a clean piece of the wool buff the table until the wax ‘disappears’ from the surface.

To ensure the best longevity of the white laminate Tulip Table, we advise the correct care and attention is paid. If a spill does occur, clean it up quickly with some warm, lightly soapy, water and a sponge. Multisurface cleaner is a good way to keep the table looking clean and shiny too (be sure to read the instructions on the bottle to ensure it does not negatively affect the paint on the table).

Of course, we all like to keep our wonderful cushions looking bright and colourful. Our best advise should a spillage occur or to just ensure the vitality of the cover is to remove it from the cushion and hand wash it in lukewarm water with a very mild detergent and let dry naturally before reapplying it to the cushion.

We only use the finest materials for our products. From the timelessly classic Carrara marble for all of our tables from side to 244 dining table to the strong and sturdy fibreglass reinforced plastic for our side and arm chairs, we ensure quality is maintained throughout our range. The bases for our products are made from cast aluminium
and sit under everything from the triple lacquered flatboard white laminate tables and the walnut veneer tables to our wonderful Arabescato and Emperador marbles.

However, we do have a wide range of images that we can supply to provide an idea of how these wonderful pieces look.
