Abstract

Illuminated top furniture including an illuminated top portion and a support portion. The illuminated top portion includes a support layer, at least one light source, a light diffusion layer and an upper protective layer. The at least one light source is mounted to the support layer. The light diffusion layer is positioned on a side of the at least one light source that is opposite the support layer. The upper protective layer is positioned on a side of the light diffusion layer that is opposite the support layer. At least a portion of the upper protective layer is transparent such that light emitted by the at least one light source is visible through the upper protective layer while the light diffusion layer obscures the at least one light source so that the at least one light source is not visible through the upper protective layer. The support portion is attached to the illuminated top portion to support the illuminated top portion above a ground surface.
