If you already have a table leg with an old or damaged table top, it is easy to buy only a table top, and to attach it to the table legs you already have.
If you don’t find the top you want don’t hesitate to contact an artist or artisan who works with mosaic. A little visit to the studio or the site will show you ideas and you might be able to order from him/her the design you want. Of course you could try to make your own mosaic table top.
Mosaic table set
It is also possible to find a mosaic table set where the chair seat matches the design of the table top. Not all sets have mosaic chairs, some sets have a mosaic table top and the chair legs and general style matches the style and legs of the table. Others might have the design in a part of the chair back.
It is a personal preference and if you are looking for a bistro set that is intended to be more decorative than functional then you would probably opt for a mosaic chair.
