The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

Originating in the early 18th century, a George I lowboy is a small table featuring a flat surface over a row of drawers, supported by cabriole or turned legs. These pieces were designed to function as dressing tables, writing desks, or side tables in English households.

Early Georgian lowboys were commonly constructed from native English oak or walnut. Craftsmen utilized hand-cut dovetail joints for drawer construction, wooden peg joinery for the frame, and equipped the drawers with cast brass handles or escutcheons.

Authentic 18th-century pieces display signs of period craftsmanship, such as hand-sawn drawer linings, hand-cut dovetail joints, and historic wooden peg fastenings. Natural timber shrinkage over centuries often creates subtle distortion or gaps in the top boards.

An oak lowboy can serve as an entryway console table, a compact home office writing desk, or an accent piece in a bedroom. Pairing rich dark oak surfaces with modern lighting or contemporary artwork creates an effective visual contrast.

To preserve the timber finish, clean surfaces with a soft, dry cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year. Keep the table away from direct heat sources and maintain a stable indoor humidity level to prevent timber movement.
