Description
In a world where design transcends time, there emerges a masterpiece that dances on the delicate line between the past and the future. A relic from the late 1970s to the early 1980s, this dining table is not merely an artefact of its era; it is a symphony of glass and iron, a creation attributed to none other than the visionary, Norman Foster.
As your fingers graze the smooth surface of the transparent glass tabletop, you can almost feel the pulse of creativity that once coursed through the veins of the mastermind behind this marvel. The glass, thick and unyielding, captures the essence of transparency in its most literal form. It welcomes light, plays with reflections, and invites conversation to flow effortlessly around its shimmering perimeter.
But it's the iron frame that truly steals the spotlight—a sculpture in its own right. The legs stand proud, a testament to geometry's elegance and power. Each line, each angle, is a brushstroke in an abstract painting, a portrayal of dynamic movement frozen in time. The feet, a study in balance, echo the shape of saucers, grounding the table with a whimsical touch that defies its industrial material. Ah, but the heart of this masterpiece resides in its pedestal ends, a detail that invites intrigue. Anchored by a metal disc, the pedestal speaks of stability and connection. It's as though Foster himself designed not just a table, but a dialogue between form and function, a conversation that spans decades and blurs the boundaries of design eras.
Run your hand along the metal joints—connections that hold secrets of craftsmanship and engineering. They are not just mundane links; they are the veins that give life to the intricate anatomy of this table, a fusion of creativity and construction, of artistry and utility. And as your eyes drink in the beauty before you, a sense of timelessness takes root. This table, with its bold essence, finds itself equally at home in the modern spaces of today and the postmodern dreams of yesterday. It defies temporal constraints, beckoning you to partake in its narrative, a narrative that celebrates innovation and resonates with the echoes of an artistic soul.

Last updated: 17th October 2024
Our Terms of sale were designed to treat both Customers and Vendors (including Professional Vendors and Non-Professional Vendors (as defined in the Site Terms)) fairly, in order to make the shopping/selling experience with Vinterior just as exceptional as the items.
To protect our Customers from disappointment or the unexpected, we strongly encourage them to closely inspect item photos, descriptions, and details before purchasing anything on the Site, and then again upon delivery or pickup.
If the Customer is unsure about an item's condition, dimensions, quantity, or description, they can send their questions to the item's Vendor by clicking on Ask the seller on the listing page of the Site.
Customers shall receive the same level of consumer protection on purchases irrespective of whether they are buying from a Professional Vendor or Non-Professional Vendor.
Should you have any questions regarding your transaction, please contact the Vendor in the first instance.
Can I cancel an order?
If a Customer changes their mind or decides for any other reason not to purchase the Goods before they have been dispatched, they can cancel the order on the Site and receive a refund.
The right to cancel does not apply to the following types of goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke, or made-to-order according to the customer's specific requirements. If in doubt, the Customer can contact the Vendor via the Site.
If the Customer cancels an order after an item has already been marked as dispatched for delivery, the delivery costs are non-refundable.
To cancel the order, the Customer must follow the cancellation procedure on the Site by clicking on Create Cancellation on the order page.
Can I return an item?
At Vinterior, we understand that sometimes a piece may not be the perfect fit once it's in your home. That's why we offer a 14-day return policy, allowing you to return any item within 14 days from the date of delivery for any reason.
In the rare event that an item arrives damaged or defective, you have 30 days from the date of delivery to return it for a full refund or to have the issue fixed when possible.

Types of returns and responsibilities
Change of mind return
Consumers can return the goods due to a change of mind. Once a return is requested, the buyer is in charge of shipping the goods back to the seller and should organise it as soon as possible. Shipment costs to and from buyers are non-refundable.
Item not fit for purpose
Acting under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, customers may return faulty Goods that are damaged or the listing on the Site is materially inaccurate, misleading, or misrepresents the Goods. In these cases, the Customer must provide photographic evidence to Vinterior and the Vendor or reject the delivery on arrival.
Damage in transit
Vinterior must be informed of any damage in transit. If Proovia delivered the items, Vinterior will then raise an insurance claim on behalf of the Vendor with the delivery company. If the seller organised a delivery, they would be asked to raise a claim with their courier. Once the claim is resolved and any relevant decision regarding the insurance has been made, any applicable refunds will be processed.
How to request a return
To initiate a return the customer needs to log in to their Vinterior account and click Create a return on the order page. In the return request, the reason for the return must be included along with photos of any damage of the Goods, if faulty.
How you will be refunded?
Once the item is returned to the Vendor in the same condition, the Vendor will confirm receipt of the item, and Vinterior will refund the original payment method.
If an item is returned to the seller damaged or in an unsuitable condition, Vinterior will not be able to process the refund, and the seller may have to send it back (and ask you to cover the delivery costs). All items are inspected on return.
What can't be returned?
As with cancellations, the right to return an item does not apply to the following types of Goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke or made-to-order to the Customer's specific requirements.
Please note that vintage items are not sold as new and are likely to show signs of wear and tear. This is not sufficient grounds for a refund.
Vendors may refuse a return of an item if the Customer has altered it in any way.
Neither Vinterior nor the Vendors are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
