The Sustainable Choice

FAQs

Originally created in the late 18th century to hold sheet music, a Canterbury evolved during the Victorian period into an ornamental stand featuring vertical dividers and open shelves for magazines, papers, and small collectibles.

Victorian Canterburys were typically crafted from hardwoods such as walnut, rosewood, or mahogany, often featuring decorative burr walnut veneers, hand-cut fretwork partitions, turned spindles, and brass castors.

Authentic 19th-century pieces display book-matched burr walnut veneers, original brass castors secured with period screws, hand-carved fretwork with subtle irregularities, and natural wear to the lower base.

Place a Canterbury beside a lounge chair as an occasional table for contemporary reading material, or position it in an entryway to organize incoming mail and books.

Dust regularly using a soft, dry lint-free cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish annually, ensuring the wood is kept away from direct heat sources to prevent veneer lifting or fading.
