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

An 18th-century walnut games table is a piece of occasional furniture designed for card playing and board games, featuring a folding top that expands to double the surface area and slender legs typical of the period.

These tables were typically crafted with figured walnut veneers glued over solid pine or oak frames, featuring hand-cut dovetail drawers, decorative crossbanding, and concertina or gate-leg hinged supports.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-saw marks on structural underside framing, hand-cut iron screws, cast brass hinges, uneven hand-planed drawers, and natural wood oxidation from age.

An antique games table functions as a console table against an entryway wall, an accent piece behind a sofa, or a compact desk in an empty corner when folded closed.

Dust the surface regularly with a soft dry cloth, apply high-quality beeswax once annually, keep the table away from direct sunlight or heat sources, and maintain stable indoor humidity levels.
