Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

A Victorian gaming table is an occasional table crafted specifically for playing cards, chess, or parlour games. Popular during the 19th century, these tables frequently feature baize-lined surfaces, decorative turned or barley-twist legs, brass studding, and ornate stretchers.

Cabinetmakers primarily used dense hardwoods such as walnut, mahogany, and rosewood. Playing surfaces were typically upholstered in wool baize or leather, trimmed with brass studs, and embellished with parcel gilding or metal mounts.

Authentic pieces by Howard & Sons often feature makers stamps or paper labels on the underside of the frame or drawer linings. Look for stamped brass castors bearing the makers name, precise joinery, and high-standard decorative carving.

An antique gaming table can function as an occasional side table, a focal point in a reading nook, or a dedicated games area. Pair it with mid-century or contemporary armchairs to create a balanced contrast between historic details and clean modern lines.

Clean the baize surface using a soft brush following the pile of the fabric to remove dust. Preserve parcel-gilded turned legs by lightly dusting with a dry microfibre cloth, keeping the wood away from direct heat sources and moisture.
