Is the glass top removable (does it rest in place)? I wish to use the glass on another table.

The glass top is held in by plastic clips. Four of them hold the table legs, then there are four smaller ones in between each leg, so they could be popped out if you wanted to remove the glass.

The glass top is removable, I actually used it on another table for a few weeks after I got it. The glass on my old table broke in a wind storm but I didn't want to assemble the new table for the few weeks I had until winter set in so I just used the glass from this table to rest on the old table frame. The metal band around the glass is attached to the glass however. The whole thing just sits on some rubber nubs on legs below.

The clips that hold it in can be slid around to one side of the rim then you can easily tip the glass out. I had one clip that wouldn't slide, so I slid all the others to it. :-)

the top is glass. the bottom is some kind of composite or something. it's sturdy and heavy. the table top screws on to a metal threaded bar that comes up through the bottom. it's a pretty sturdy table.

The glass does appear to be removable. There are some wooden brackets holding it on from the inside which are attached by screws.

No. Assembly is required. And the glass top is quite weighty so I needed help to assemble.It is a fun table!

It's a permanent feature. It would be nice if it we we removable. It's kind of awkward and I generally don't break a lot of glass.

No. It is a beautiful table but I would recommend buying a glass top to protect it.

You could put a glass on the box, but I would not do that. The lid is not flat enough for me to be comfortable it would not fall off. Hence, I would not use it as a table. It is certainly OK to put something that doesn't break on it.

In theory you could. The post that runs down the middle is in sections so you could unscrew it take the top glass off, the middle post section off and then screw the top piece back on. If you are looking for flat like for a cake --not sure how that would work and still be stable. It is truly beautiful-- much better than the pictures show.

The table is cast iron, the surface design is "basket waiving" to best describe it. The look is amazing, but our concern was same as yours "what about glasses" and to my surprise there is very little rocking when you place a glass on top. The interlacining of the wroth iron surface is flat and glasses are pretty stable. The table look good and very elegant and 8 persons fit very comfortable with the wicker stackable chairs we have.I hope my comment help.D

Suctions cups on top the base keep the glass from sliding off. You can lean on it sitting down and it shouldn't be a problem.

table is 3d all the way around,it is not flat in the back. the table is not flat topped, elephants' heads are not flat with or without glass. i will not use it outdoors. it is a beautiful indoor furniture piece, i will not put it to heavy duty use, like using the glass for food or drinks for guests very frequently. i am extremely happy with it. it is also good conversation piece and attravts attention of guests.

Removable for assembly but not otherwise; the unit is a bit thin and needs the glass for stability.

it's not glass, and I haven't tried taking the top off... it's not exactly long term durable but I don't see why it can't be used a second time.

I bought the sofa table and the end table. Both are just wood tops, no glass. I had a glass company cut 2 glass rounds to put on top of the end table to protect it.

The glass does not appear to be removable as it is not secured with "tabs" like a picture frame. It is surrounded by a rubber framing. It may be possible to remove but you may damage the cabinet.

yes it is. i often put coffee on mine. as for the wine glass,. it is stable but bear in mind that the top is "rattan" and therefore a coaster or something solid underneath the wine glass would be advisable. the coffee cup is heavy enough that it will stay put. This was a "snap" to put together and I definitely would recommend it.
