Dealers Notes

Our stock includes early oak and walnut furniture from the 18th century, as well as more formal pieces from the Georgian period. Clocks, barometers and globes are complemented by Colonial cabinets, furniture and early arms. Their scientific instruments, which include early microscopes, telescopes and equipment such as sextants, provide a fascinating insight into the evolution of technology, whilst demonstrating fine artistry and craftsmanship. One of Hansord’s many exhibitions was entitled ‘From simplicity to complexity with a little eccentricity’ and this continues to be the guiding mantra behind their collection today.

FAQs

Originating in 18th-century France, Louis XV style card tables feature curvilinear Rococo silhouettes, pronounced cabriole legs, and intricate decorative wood marquetry or parquetry. Designed for social gaming parlours, these tables typically incorporate flip-top surfaces and gilded bronze mounts.

These tables feature fine timber veneers such as kingwood, rosewood, walnut, and tulipwood inlaid into solid timber frames. Ornamental accents consist of cast gilt-bronze (ormolu) mounts positioned on the knees, edges, and feet.

Authentic pieces display hand-cut veneer joinery, hand-chased brass or bronze mounts with period-appropriate casting marks, and dovetailed secondary wood joints beneath the top. Natural timber oxidisation and age-related wear around the folding hinges also signal historic construction.

Position the pair symmetrically flanking a doorway, fireplace, or sofa to create formal balance within a living room or hallway. When kept closed, they function as console or side tables for displaying decorative ceramics and table lamps.

Keep the timber away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent veneer lifting or fading, dusting regularly with a dry soft cloth. Clean ormolu mounts gently with a dry brush, avoiding liquid metal polishes that can seep into and damage the surrounding wood inlay.
