Stainless Steel Sculpture
Coffee Table
A coffee table forged from 304 stainless steel plate into a sculptural form. The body is hand forged and welded, then mirror polished to reflect light and surroundings. It is designed as a central feature in interior spaces, where its shape and finish integrate with the room rather than compete with it. The table is built to a client's drawing, so dimensions and form follow the intended layout.

Problems It Solves
- Standard catalogue coffee tables often have fixed dimensions that don’t fit a specific room layout

Materials

Quality Control
- Formed shape checked against the approved drawing before welding
- Weld seams inspected and dressed until they disappear under the polish
- Polished surface checked under light for grinding marks and orange peel
- Protective film applied to every polished face before crating
Customization Options

Use Guide
- Send the interior layout drawing with table position and intended size marked
- Confirm the floor type so the support structure and fixing detail can be adapted
- Leave the protective film in place until the surrounding interior work is complete
- Clean with water and a soft cloth; avoid abrasive pads on the mirror surface
- Re-polish locally if a scratch occurs during site work rather than replacing the piece
Manufacturing Process
How This Piece Is Made
- Review of the interior layout drawing and agreement on table form and placement
- Plate forming data calculated for each section before any steel is cut
- Hand forging of the plate into the sculptural table form
- Welding of the closed body and dressing back of the weld lines
- Grinding through successive grits followed by mirror polishing
- Support structure welded on, protective film applied and crating for export
Every stage happens in the same workshop in Pingshan, Shenzhen, which is why a set of pieces arrives matching.

Coffee Table Questions
What material is the table made from?
It is forged from 304 stainless steel plate and then mirror polished. This grade is used because it holds a polish and resists corrosion in indoor environments.
Can you make the table in the size and shape on our drawing?
Yes. Our technicians calculate the forming data for each steel plate, so the shape, curvature and height follow your drawing exactly.
Can the table be used on carpet or hardwood floors?
Yes. The support structure is adapted to the floor type. We detail the fixing or base plate to suit carpet, hardwood, tile or concrete.
What finishes are available besides mirror polish?
Brushed satin, colour electroplating and baked lacquer are all produced in house. Colour samples are made for approval before production.
How are the tables packed for export?
Polished faces are covered with protective film and the table is crated. Tell us the destination port and we will confirm the crating arrangement.
Can we see a sample before the full table is made?
Yes. One piece can be produced for approval first, which is the normal route for custom tables.
How do we get a price?
Send the layout drawing or a sketch with size and quantity by email or WhatsApp and we will quote against it.
