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.

Louis XVI style furniture is defined by Neoclassical design principles, drawing inspiration from ancient Roman and Greek architecture. Common characteristics include straight lines, geometric symmetry, tapered rectangular or fluted legs, and classic ornamentation such as laurel wreaths, swags, and rosette mounts.

Tables from this period and movement typically feature fine hardwoods or ebonised timber bases, topped with fitted marble slabs such as Carrara or grey veined marble. Decorative elements are composed of finely cast and chased gilt-bronze, commonly referred to as ormolu.

Authentic pieces often feature maker stamps on the underside or drawer linings, precise joinery including fine dovetails, and high-quality gilding on chased bronze mounts. The weight and casting density of the ormolu mounts, along with hand-cut marble edges, also indicate genuine period construction.

A Louis XVI centre table functions well as a focal point in a grand foyer, hallway, or formal drawing room. It can be paired with modern art or minimal decorative accessories to balance classical ornamentation with contemporary design elements.

Maintain the finish by dusting regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and keeping the table away from direct sunlight or damp environments. Avoid using abrasive chemicals or metal polishes on ormolu mounts, and clean marble tops using only pH-neutral stone cleaners.
