The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

Originally created in the 18th and 19th centuries as pot cupboards, these small cabinets were designed to discreetly store chamber pots. Marble tops were added to provide a cool, durable, and easily cleanable surface that protected the wooden carcass from spills and heat.

Cabinetmakers primarily utilised hard-wearing woods such as walnut, mahogany, oak, or fruitwood for the main frame. Marble slabs, often sourced locally or imported with distinctive veining such as Carrara or Rouge Griotte, were shaped and fitted to the top.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-cut dovetail joints, unpolished undersides on the marble tops, original cast brass hardware, and hand-planed back panels. Micro-cracking in the timber finish and subtle unevenness in hand-carved mouldings are also key indicators.

Pairing antique wooden nightstands with sleek contemporary lighting, neutral linen bedding, and modern artwork creates a balanced scheme. The stone top acts as a protective surface for contemporary ceramic lamps or glass carafes.

Dust timber surfaces regularly with a soft cloth and nourish with natural beeswax polish. Clean the marble top using pH-neutral soap and water, avoiding acidic cleaners or harsh chemicals that can etch or dull the stone surface.
