I've always had a fondness for Danish modern furniture, but the Illusion table from Essey of Denmark is not what you may normally expect. The 3mm acrylic sheet looks like a cloth draped over a round table. The folds of the acrylic give the side table structural integrity and each one is handmade and unique. It should be handled like glass and can support 25 kg of weight. Available in white or clear for around $250 plus shipping from greenergrassdesign.
One of my personal favorites in home décor is a clean modern look that is not to trendy or over done. Since 1979 Cattelan has produced a collection of top notch furniture that has combined the best materials and stunning designs. Cattelan is still made exclusively in Italy by the standards that made them famous, and their quality remains first rate. The spiral is a very unique table made from a continuous piece of glass and supported by an understated metal frame.Available in several glass options including black and frosted.
I've been told to get my feet off the coffee table a time or two, but never my entire body.

Made from American Black Walnut, steel rods, and elastic cords this pliable surface offers cushioned seating when the sofa is full. 48x18x18

If you enjoy the ambiance of glass in your house, here are two great furniture pieces by designer Gae Aulenti. The Appia console table was created in 1984 for Zanotta. The Tavolino coffee table was created for Fontana Arte in 1982. These pieces show Aulenti's passion for working with glass and are great examples of contemporary design.
