FAQs

A quartetto set consists of four graduating occasional tables designed to slide neatly beneath one another when not in use. Popularised in the late eighteenth century by cabinetmakers such as Thomas Sheraton, they provided space-saving surfaces for tea, games, or needlework in period drawing rooms.

Victorian quartetto tables were predominantly crafted from solid mahogany, rosewood, or walnut, often featuring fine satinwood or boxwood string inlay and marquetry panels. Construction typically involved thin turned spindle legs, concave back stretchers for structural stability, and trestle feet.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-cut joinery, shrinkage marks on the undersides, and subtle variations in hand-turned legs. Look for natural patination along the edges and authentic veneer wear rather than perfectly uniform modern machine finishes.

Position the nested set alongside an armchair or sofa to serve as versatile drinks tables when entertaining. Alternatively, pull the individual tables out in a staggered formation to display decorative objects while highlighting the tiered inlaid tops.

Maintain the timber by dusting regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and applying a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year along the wood grain. Keep the tables away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent wood warping and veneer lifting.
