Features and designs

Forged tables are perhaps the most common pieces of furniture made using the art forging technique. They can be either an independent detail in the interior or form a single ensemble with other furniture. Most often, such furniture is made to order, all elements and every detail are carefully thought out in it according to the style of the interior in which it will be placed.

Among them, you can find models with a wooden top or inlaid with multi-colored glass, a transparent glass table with graceful forged legs with a convenient base, tables on wheels with a rectangular or round base, as well as with a presentable stone or marble top. With such a varied choice, any buyer will be able to find something suitable for himself.

Advantages and disadvantages

Like any other furniture, forged metal tables have their pros and cons, and in order to understand all the intricacies of the operation of these products, you need to carefully consider them basic quality characteristics:

  • Metal tables have a very long service life, with increased strength throughout the entire period of use. Restoration of such products may be extremely rare;
  • Too heavy weight of the furniture makes it as stable as possible. As a rule, such tables do not tilt or fall;
  • The metal structure is capable of withstanding a significant load, it will not bend even with increased loads on its base;
  • The ability to use forged furniture both indoors and outdoors, it is not afraid of adverse weather conditions and does not deform depending on atmospheric conditions;
  • Wrought iron tables with a metal top are easy to clean and do not require special care, unlike tables with wooden, glass and marble tops;
  • Possessing an excellent appearance, forged models harmoniously fit into almost any interior and bring an atmosphere of luxury and sophistication to it.

The main disadvantages of tables with artistic forging include:

  • Very high price of the products. Although this disadvantage is more than compensated for by its long service life, such furniture can be passed from generation to generation, remaining beautiful even after many years of service;
  • Heavy weight of products. It must be taken into account, as it can ruin the floor covering by pushing or scratching it. Therefore, when choosing such a table, an appropriate especially durable coating should be laid in the room, which is not very susceptible to mechanical damage. If you decide to purchase such a heavy object in the interior, then it is unlikely that you will move it during cleaning, so this issue also needs to be thought out in advance.

Care

Forged furniture is very easy to maintain. During the production process, the metal parts of the tables are treated with a special anti-corrosion compound, after which all metal parts are carefully polished with ordinary chalk softened in ammonia. This is done in order to fix the paint to the metal.

After such processing, forged furniture practically does not corrode. To keep your furniture clean and tidy during operation, you just need to regularly wipe all metal elements from dust and dirt with a damp cloth.

If you need to give a metal surface a special shine, then you can polish it using special pastes. A wide range of them are presented in many household hypermarkets.

But even treating the metal parts of the table with regular wax, you can achieve a good glossy shine. In addition, such a simple technique will additionally protect the product from aggressive external conditions, especially if it is used outdoors.

By following these simple rules, you will increase the life of your furniture and it will serve you faithfully for many years, remaining in its original state.

So, the basic rules of care:

  • Clean wrought iron furniture from dust and dirt as needed;
  • When using furniture outdoors, wash the dirt with warm water and a mild soap solution;
  • It is better to pre-treat products that will be used outdoors with anti-corrosion agents.
