The Barcelona Collection
Formed by the iconic Barcelona Chair; and the Barcelona Sofa, Loveseat, Ottoman, Table and Benches, the Barcelona Collection was an authentic breakthrough in the world of design back in 1929.

And you can even use the properties of the Barcelona Table to let some detail shows over the rest, like for example, to let some pattern of your rug to be more visible.
Any disadvantage? Of course, even a Barcelona Table has some minor disadvantages, like, for example, the presence of kids and pets over there.  The cristal thick of a Barcelona Table is quite strong, with a tempered glass top of 1/2 inch, but prevention is never enough when it comes to our loved ones.
