FAQs

A loo table is a form of centre table originally designed in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries for playing the popular card game Loo. Typically featuring a circular or oval top mounted on a central pedestal, these tables frequently incorporated a tilt-top mechanism to allow compact storage against a wall when not in use.

Nineteenth-century loo tables were predominantly crafted from high-quality hardwoods such as rosewood, mahogany, or walnut, often displaying decorative grain veneers. Construction typically involved a carved central column supported by a tripod or quadruped base, fitted with brass castors and a hinged wooden latch mechanism for tilting the table top.

Authentic Victorian examples often display hand-carved details on the column base and scroll legs, along with original brass or wooden tilt-top latches underneath the tabletop. Genuine period pieces demonstrate natural patina, hand-cut joinery, and dense, dark grain patterns characteristic of antique rosewood.

An antique centre table functions effectively as an entryway focal point, a library reading table, or an informal dining table. Placing a contemporary vase or sculptural object in the centre creates a balanced contrast between historic craftsmanship and modern design elements.

Dust the surface regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year to nourish the timber. Keep the table away from direct sunlight and radiator heat sources to prevent cracking, veneer lifting, or wood fading.
