Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

A nineteenth-century games table is a piece of multi-functional occasional furniture crafted with specialized inlaid surfaces for playing chess, draughts, or backgammon, often featuring folding leaves and integrated storage.

Victorian games tables were typically constructed from rich hardwoods such as rosewood, mahogany, or walnut, featuring contrasting timber inlays like boxwood or ebony for board markers, and often incorporate fabric-lined work baskets.

Authentic pieces feature dark, densely grained rosewood veneers, hand-cut dovetail joinery, turned trestle supports, original brass hinges, and natural age-related oxidisation on structural components.

These versatile pieces serve as functional accent tables in a library, sitting room, or hallway corner, pairing compact dimensions with historic craftsmanship to contrast modern upholstery.

Keep the timber away from direct sunlight and central heating sources to prevent veneer lifting or warping. Wax periodically with a clear beeswax polish and dust with a soft, lint-free cloth.
