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.

Introduced in the late 18th century and widely produced throughout the 19th century, breakfast tables were designed for informal dining in morning rooms. They frequently featured a tilt-top mechanism allowing the tabletop to pivot vertically, enabling the piece to be stored against a wall to clear floor space when not in use.

These tables were typically crafted using dark, densely grained Brazilian or East Indian rosewood veneers over a solid timber core such as mahogany or pine. Construction featured hand-cut dovetails, turned pedestal columns, carved scroll legs, and brass catch mechanisms for the tilting top.

Authentic pieces exhibit heavy, highly figured rosewood veneer, original brass spring-latches beneath the tabletop, and hand-fitted brass castors on the feet. Look for signs of historic hand-planing on the undersides and period-appropriate wear around the pivot hinges.

A tilt-top table can serve as a primary dining surface in a compact dining nook or kitchen. When folded vertically, it functions as a dramatic decorative background element against a dining room wall or entry hall corridor.

Keep the table away from direct sunlight and artificial heat sources to prevent the thin rosewood veneer from lifting or cracking. Clean the wood using a soft microfiber cloth and apply a high-grade beeswax polish once or twice a year to preserve the timber finish.
