Aprons (Apron Styles)

APRONS ARE A UNIQUE FEATURE PLACED AROUND TABLE EDGES AND ARE AMONG MANY CHARACTERISTICS WE USE TO CUSTOMIZE THE LOOK, FEEL, AND UTILITY OF A TABLE.

Some aprons are purely aesthetic, whereas others may also have a practical application. This may be another consideration, depending on your intended use and your style preferences.

Integrating a typical bead apron will help to contain spills, whereas beaded roundovers are more ornate cuts that don’t have that particular utility but may look gorgeous on a dining room table.

Coves may be more practical if you’re seeking a desk table or workspace, as they allow space to set pens and pencils etc.

In all cases, rather than implementing a straight, flat surface, aprons enhance the complexity of the design.

The height of the apron is typically 4 inches and can be applied to any table shape.

IN ADDITION, THERE ARE A VARIETY OF OPTIONS AVAILABLE FOR TABLE SILHOUETTES.

Pictures of these designs are below as well. Please note also that an apron with a profile cannot have a silhouette.

If you’re interested in integrating a particular apron or silhouette into your custom table, feel free to let us know via a quote request form. This can be sent to us at glumber@glumber.com.
