FAQs

A Victorian games table is a multi-functional piece of furniture designed for parlour pastimes such as chess, checkers, and card games, often featuring folding or rotating tops and integrated storage.

These tables were typically crafted from high-end hardwoods such as mahogany, rosewood, and burr walnut, frequently accented with marquetry, boxwood stringing, and mother-of-pearl inlay for the playing surfaces.

Authenticity is assessed by examining traditional joinery methods, timber ageing, hand-cut dovetails in drawers, and the presence of genuine veneer blistering or oxidisation appropriate to the nineteenth century.

Position the table as a focal point in a study or living area, either folded flat to display the figured wood grain or set up with decorative vintage chess pieces to add historic character to contemporary spaces.

Maintain the wood by dusting with a soft, dry cloth and periodically applying a quality beeswax to nourish the veneer, avoiding direct sunlight and excessive moisture to prevent cracking.
