FAQs

Wine tables and candle stands became popular in 18th and 19th-century Britain as light, portable furniture designed to hold drinks or candles. Bobbin turning, characterised by a series of rounded spool-like shapes, was a traditional woodturning technique widely used during the 17th century and revived during the Victorian era.

These tables were predominantly constructed from dense hardwoods like mahogany or walnut, prized for their rich grain and durability. A lathe was used to turn the central column into decorative bobbin profiles, while the tripod legs were joined using traditional hand-cut dovetail or mortise and tenon joints beneath a central block.

Authentic period pieces typically show subtle irregularities in the hand-turned bobbins rather than modern machine precision. Look for historic saw marks underneath the tabletop, original hand-cut joinery securing the tripod legs to the pedestal stem, and natural surface patination around high-wear areas.

A compact pedestal table functions as a drink stand positioned beside an armchair or sofa. Its sculptural bobbin silhouette adds architectural interest and historical detail to minimalist, contemporary, or transitional room schemes.

Preserve the finish by dusting regularly with a dry, soft cloth and applying a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year. Keep the table away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight to prevent wood shrinkage, cracking, or uneven fading of the original finish.
