FAQs

A George III snap top tripod table is an 18th-century English occasional table characterised by a circular wooden top mounted on a catch mechanism. This mechanism allows the surface to tilt vertically, allowing the table to be stored flush against a wall when not in use.

These tables were predominantly constructed from dense Cuban or West Indian mahogany, valued for its grain and rich tone. The catch mechanisms were typically cast from brass or forged iron.

Authentic pieces feature hand-turned central columns, hand-cut dovetails or bearer blocks beneath the top, and original iron or brass spring latches. The timber often shows hand-planing marks and natural colour variation from historic oxidation.

The piece can be displayed upright in a room corner to highlight the wood grain of the circular top, or placed horizontally beside a sofa as an occasional table for lamps and books.

Dust the surface regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply beeswax polish periodically along the grain. Keep the table away from direct heat sources and sudden humidity changes to prevent warping of the circular top.
