How heavy is the top and how heavy is the base?

9 years ago

I want to put this outside on the patio but I'm concerned about it being top heavy and prone to tipping over in the wind. Do you think that will be an issue?

Hi!

Thank you for your interest in our marble table.

To answer your question, the entire table weights approximately 58 lbs, with the top weighting around 48 lbs and base 10 lbs. The stem and base are both 100% cast iron and are made to the same specifications as tables found during the Belle Epoque. I can understand why you could think that the table is top heavy, but you can rest assure that it is not. The table is not going anywhere. :)

If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to let us know.

I wish you a wonderful evening.

Sincerely,
Cary
