FAQs

A loo table originated in the 18th century as a dedicated surface for playing the card game Loo or Lanterloo. By the mid-19th century, these tables evolved into multi-purpose parlour and centre tables, incorporating tilt-top mechanisms so they could be positioned flat against a wall when not in use.

Victorian cabinetmakers predominantly utilised burr walnut, rosewood, and mahogany veneers applied over solid pine or oak frames. The table tops frequently feature book-matched figured veneers resting on a turned central pedestal with hand-carved quadruped legs.

Authentic period examples feature original brass tilt-catch mechanisms, hand-carved base details, and natural oxidisation on the unpolished timber undersides. The presence of original ceramic or brass castors fitted beneath the feet and hand-cut timber joinery further indicates 19th-century construction.

Positioning the table as a centrepiece in an entry foyer or wide hallway creates a functional focal point that highlights the figured veneer top. Tilting the table top vertically allows the timber grain to act as a decorative panel when floor space needs to be conserved.

Dust the surface regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a clear beeswax polish once or twice a year, buffing in the direction of the grain. Keep the item away from direct sunlight and central heating radiators to protect the veneer from warping or bleaching.
