Looking for a beautiful glass top desk? I’ve rounded up my favorite desks to help you create a stylish home office!
I love the look of glass top desks – since they don’t take up much visual space, they make a room feel larger than if you used a traditional wood desk. Glass top desks also have a more modern, stylish edge to keep your office from looking dull and overly traditional. After going on a hunt for the perfect glass desk I’ve narrowed it down to these favorites… (post includes affiliate links – disclosure statement available {here}).
One style of glass top desk that I tend to gravitate towards is sawhorse leg desks – I love this one that has sawhorse legs in a gorgeous polished nickel finish:
while this exact desk has recently been discontinued, {this glass top desk} is almost identical and you also have the option to have brushed brass, gold, or black sawhorse legs.
{This highly rated glass top desk with a silver base} has a similar vibe but with a different design:
If you like the warm feel of a wood base, the wood legs in this retro-inspired beauty (available {here}) are gorgeous:
Looking for a desk with an updated classic feel? {This white-coated steel & glass desk} is simple but sophisticated:
and look how cool it looks when you put them back to back to create an office space for two:
If you’re looking for an all-glass desk that keeps your room feeling open and airy, {this glass desk} has five star reviews:
If you don’t have a lot of room for a desk, this small space glass desk found {here} is perfect:
It’s small enough to fit in the corner of your living room and pretty enough to use in your bedroom.
Do you have a favorite or do you know of any other great glass top desks out there that I should add to my list? 
I love how my glass desk came out, using the ikea inspiration from Matters of Style. I spray painted the legs a hammered bronze and had a glass top made for it. I also bought the Vittsjo unit and sprayed that as well. They look fantastic!
I love hearing that you created the glass desk using the IKEA legs and are really happy with it! I looked up the Vittsjo unit – I can see how that would look fantastic with the desk – great idea!
Actually, the size of the bookcase may be deceiving in the image. It is just a few inches under 8 feet tall so you do indeed need the ladder to reach the top shelf!
Great pictures of glass topped desk! You always do your homework 🙂
It’s from a furniture store called Merridian Home Furnishings. The store in Cincinnati actually went out of business a few weeks after we bought it but they still have locations in Nashville and Louisville. Their website is http://www.merridian.com (FYI – they run sales every now and then with 30% off so if you find what you’re looking for, you might want to hold our for a sale!)
I’m torn on the issue myself. If you decide to go for it, I’d love to see a pic of your new space!
Hi Nathalie, our bookcase was bought from a local furniture store called Merridian Home Furnishings, which has locations in Nashville and Louisville. They buy directly from sellers in India so there is no manufacturer or other site to buy it from. Their website is http://www.merridian.com – we’ve had it for over a year now so I don’t know if it’s still available or not.
Hi Alisse – we didn’t end up going with a glass desk top in our house but the ones that I’ve seen simply rest on the base and aren’t attached in any way. The glass is heavy enough that it tends to stay put!
Hi do you know where I can buy the glass top? TRying to do a DIY glass desk like this but haven’t had much luck- ikea’s glass tops right now are only with geographic designs
Hi Ashley,
You can get a glass top cut to whatever size you need at a local glass shop!
