FAQs

Tables from this era frequently drew inspiration from earlier historical periods such as Jacobean and Tudor designs, characterised by heavy timber construction, turned legs, and stretcher bases.

These pieces were typically constructed from solid quarter-sawn oak, featuring mortise and tenon joints, functional leaf-extension mechanisms, and robust stretcher supports for enhanced stability.

Authenticity is indicated by traditional joinery methods, natural ageing of the timber such as oxidisation and surface patination, iron or brass mechanical hardware, and solid wood construction rather than modern veneers.

Pairing a substantial wooden table with contrasting modern minimalist seating or placing it within a neutral-toned room creates a balanced juxtaposition of historical texture and clean modern lines.

Maintain the timber by dusting regularly with a dry cloth, avoiding direct sunlight and excessive heat sources to prevent warping, and periodically nourishing the surface with traditional beeswax.
