I think some rounding of the corners would be good, otherwise using it
will be pretty dangerous.

You can not say what color the surface will have, since this is exactly
what radiosity calculates, but the main influences are the light source(s)
and the colors of the surrounding objects.  If your table seems too dark,
increase diffuse finish or light source intensity or make the surrounding
(for example the ceiling) brighter.
