Glass dining tables have a unique advantage in Hong Kong apartments: they let light pass through, making compact dining areas feel more open and spacious. When that glass comes from Italy — where artisan glassmaking has been refined over centuries — you get something truly special.

At MyConcept, we carry two of Italy's finest glass furniture makers: Sovet Italia and FIAM. This guide covers what makes Italian glass tables different, how to choose between the two brands, and which models work best for Hong Kong living.

Why Italian Glass Furniture?

• Engineering precision — Advanced tempering and curving techniques most factories can't replicate
• Material quality — Extra-clear, low-iron glass with superior optical clarity
• Design innovation — Glass pushed beyond flat surfaces into curved, layered, and sculptural forms
• Durability — Tempered glass is 4-5x stronger than regular glass

Sovet Italia — 86 Products at MyConcept

Sovet Italia was founded in the late 1980s by six Trevisan glaziers in northeast Italy. Today they produce some of the most refined glass and ceramic furniture in the world. We carry 86 Sovet pieces spanning dining tables, coffee tables, consoles, mirrors, sideboards, and chairs.

FIAM — Curved Glass Artistry

FIAM specialises in curved glass — bending sheets of tempered glass into fluid, sculptural forms that seem to defy physics.

Atlas Coffee Table — Shop now at MyConcept

• Single-piece curved glass — Some tables are made from a single sheet bent into shape
• No visible joints — The glass itself forms the structure
• Collector appeal — FIAM pieces are in permanent collections of major design museums

Standout Pieces

Rialto Side Table — A single sheet of curved glass forming both surface and support. Almost invisible in a room.

Neutra Coffee Table — Low-profile curved glass with a floating effect. Ideal for living rooms.

Sovet vs. FIAM: Which Is Right for You?

Our recommendation: For a primary dining table, start with Sovet — especially the Slim Extendable. For accent pieces that double as art, FIAM is unmatched. Many customers combine both.

Practical Considerations for Hong Kong

Maintenance

Glass tables are actually easier to maintain than wood: wipe daily with a damp microfibre cloth, use glass cleaner weekly. Ceramic tops are even easier — resistant to scratches, heat, and stains.

Hong Kong Climate Advantage

Glass handles Hong Kong's humidity better than wood — no warping, no swelling, no mould. Easy to clean in humid conditions.
