A Victorian fold-over games table is a versatile piece of 19th-century furniture featuring a hinged top that unfolds to double its surface area, traditionally used for card games such as whist or chess.

These tables are typically constructed using a secondary softwood or hardwood carcass, veneered with highly figured woods such as burr walnut, mahogany, or rosewood, often featuring baize or velvet lined playing surfaces.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-correct construction methods such as hand-cut dovetails, traditional shellac French polish finishes, natural timber shrinkage, and hand-carved solid wood architectural elements rather than modern cast resins.

An antique games table functions effectively as a console against a wall with a lamp and decorative objects placed upon it, easily pulled out into the room when additional surface space is required.

Maintain the timber by keeping it away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent veneer cracking, dusting with a dry microfibre cloth, and occasionally applying a quality microcrystalline wax to protect the polish.
