Harlowe Black Square Outdoor Dining Table

Sintered stone is one of the most resilient materials available for outdoor use. Unlike natural marble, which is porous and prone to staining or etching, the sintered stone used on this table is manufactured under extreme heat and pressure to be non-porous and incredibly dense. This results in a surface that is highly resistant to scratches, UV fading, and moisture absorption.

Yes, this table is exceptionally well-suited for coastal climates. The combination of a powder-coated aluminum frame and a sintered stone top means the set is naturally resistant to the corrosive effects of salt air and persistent moisture. While steel furniture can rust when the finish is nicked, aluminum oxidizes into a protective layer, ensuring the frame remains structurally sound even in seaside locations.

With dimensions of approximately 42 inches by 42 inches, this square table is designed to comfortably seat four adults. Its footprint is ideal for creating an intimate dining experience on a medium-sized patio or a dedicated corner of a larger deck without crowding the space.

This table features an aluminum frame, which offers superior longevity in outdoor environments compared to traditional steel. Aluminum is inherently rust-proof and corrosion-resistant, making it an ideal choice for high-humidity areas or households that don't want to worry about the structural integrity of their furniture after a rainy season.

While all materials will absorb some heat in direct sun, sintered stone generally has better thermal stability than metal or dark glass tops. However, because this table features a marble-patterned finish, it will reflect more light than a solid black surface, helping to manage heat absorption during peak afternoon hours. For maximum comfort in very hot climates, we recommend placing the table under a pergola or using an outdoor umbrella.

One of the primary benefits of sintered stone is its low-maintenance nature. Because it is non-porous, it does not require the periodic sealing that natural stone demands. For everyday care, our experts recommend simply wiping the surface with a damp cloth and mild soap. This will easily remove pollen, dust, or food spills without the need for specialized stone cleaners.
