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.

This Aesthetic Movement rectangular side table dates from circa 1880 and has an ebonised finish in black. It is constructed from hardwood with canted corners and a two-tier design comprising a flat top and a lower shelf. The lower tier is framed by a carved pierced frieze gallery with a repeated pattern, while the slender legs are slotted near the top and taper towards the floor. The surface shows minor signs of age and wear with slight fading and scuffs visible along the edges. The table stands 72 cm high by 69 cm wide and 51 cm deep. In a contemporary interior, this piece functions well as an end-of-sofa table or a side table within a gentleman's library, study or living room. The lower shelf offers extra storage or display space for books and decorative items, while the compact footprint suits smaller spaces alongside seating arrangements.

FAQs

Originating in the late 19th century, Aesthetic Movement furniture emphasised art for arts sake, drawing inspiration from Anglo-Japanese, Gothic, and Moorish aesthetics. Key elements include linear silhouettes, ebonised finishes, asymmetric details, and pierced or fretwork galleries.

Victorian craftspeople crafted ebonised furniture using fine-grained hardwoods such as birch, walnut, or beech, which were stained or dyed black to mimic costly tropical ebony wood. These pieces often featured light incised decoration or brass fittings.

Authentic period ebonised furniture displays subtle surface wear on edges revealing natural wood grain underneath, hand-cut joinery, and a matte to semi-gloss patina from age rather than a modern high-gloss polyurethane finish.

An ebonised table creates strong visual contrast when paired against neutral or pale backdrop walls. It serves well alongside upholstered sofas, styled with minimal ceramic objects, metallic brass lighting, or art books to complement the architectural dark lines.

Dust regularly using a dry microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh liquid polishers or alcohol-based solvents that can dissolve historic black dyes. Protect the ebonised surface with a high-quality beeswax applied sparingly once or twice a year.
