FAQs

A fold-over games table, popular during the 18th and 19th centuries, is constructed with a hinged top that opens to double its surface area, providing a stable platform for card playing or board games.

These tables were typically crafted from dense hardwoods such as Cuban mahogany, walnut, or rosewood, featuring solid turned or carved legs, timber veneers, and brass leaf hinges.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-planed undersides, hand-cut dovetail joints on internal timber framing, historical brass drop-leaf hinges, and uniform age-related wear to the legs and gate-leg supports.

When folded closed, the table functions as a narrow console table against a hallway wall or within a window alcove, topped with a table lamp, ceramic bowl, or framed picture.

Position the timber away from direct heat sources and radiators, dust regularly with a clean microfibre cloth, and apply a clear beeswax polish annually to preserve the wood finish.
