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.

During the 17th century, English oak side tables were characterized by pegged mortise and tenon joinery, hand-turned legs, a single long drawer, and low perimeter box stretchers designed to reinforce the structure and keep feet off cold stone floors.

Tables from this era were primarily constructed from solid English oak, held together with wooden dowels or pegs. Drawers were typically side-hung or featured early hand-cut dovetail joints, accompanied by cast brass or wrought iron hardware.

Authentic period pieces display evidence of hand-planed timber, irregular wooden pegging at the frame joints, deep natural oxidisation on the unpolished undersides, and specific wear patterns on the lower stretchers from centuries of use.

A period oak table can be positioned as a focal point in a hallway or alongside contemporary seating, where the rich historic timber creates a visual contrast against clean-lined ceramic lamps or modern artwork.

Maintain the surface by applying a thin layer of natural beeswax polish once or twice a year with a soft cloth. Keep the furniture away from direct heat sources and radiators to prevent the solid timber from drying or cracking.
