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 tilt top table, popularised during the 18th century, features a circular or oval surface connected to a central column via a hinged mechanism. This construction allows the tabletop to pivot vertically when not in use, enabling efficient storage against a wall.

Georgian tilt top tables are constructed primarily from solid mahogany or oak, utilizing a hand-turned central column and a tripod base with mortise and tenon joints. The tilt mechanism uses a hand-fitted wooden block and a metal catch mechanism underneath the tabletop.

Authentic 19th-century examples feature hand-turned columns with subtle asymmetrical lathe marks, hand-sawn timber underside surfaces, and original iron or brass latches. Natural wood shrinkage over time often results in a slightly oval top rather than a perfectly round geometry.

A tilt top table works as an accent surface beside an armchair or sofa to hold lighting and books. Alternatively, the tabletop can be secured in its vertical position and placed in an alcove to display the timber grain as a decorative element.

Position the table away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent timber movement and cracking. Apply beeswax polish once or twice annually along the direction of the grain using a clean cotton cloth, avoiding modern solvent sprays.
