Forget about associations with something fragile. Glass has long ceased to be a defenseless material. Glass tables can hold up to 100 kg - especially if equipped with strong supports. And in combination with a wooden underframe, this figure increases significantly.
Under normal circumstances, a glass table is nearly impossible to break. But in case of unforeseen situations, these models are made of safety glass, which will not crumble into many fragments, but will gently break into non-sharp parts.
