Portsea Cruise Round Bar Table - Alabaster - Ivory White

The Portsea Cruise Round Bar Table in Alabaster - Ivory White is 70cm across and 105cm high, with a stone top on a slim outdoor frame. The small round top takes three or four people standing rather than seating a group. It is built for a terrace rather than a covered room.

A bar table is for standing, and that changes the geometry. Nobody needs legroom, so the top can be small; what they need is somewhere to put a glass at chest height. At 105cm this is a true bar height and will not work with dining chairs.

At 70cm across it is a conversation table. Three or four people fit around it comfortably and a fifth makes it awkward, which is worth knowing before buying one for a party rather than two.

The honest caveat outdoors is the top. Stone holds heat in the sun and stains from anything left standing on it, and a tall table with a small base wants weighting or bringing in when the wind gets up.
