Why Sellingantiques dated this piece to THE 1930s:
Eight-piece starburst veneer layout on the top: geometric design that fixes the style.
Drop-front flap beside side-hinged cupboard doors: multi-functional design for fireside reading.
Small turned dark knobs: simple fittings suited to the streamlined octagonal form.
Mellow colour variation across the burr walnut: gradual oxidisation under daylight.

This is an independent date report produced by Sellingantiques using its own proprietary system. The process uses the photographs shown on this page. The system is never told the date the dealer has declared. This report shows that the two dates corroborate.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

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.

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 Art Deco side table dates from 1930 and follows an octagonal silhouette finished in warm brown figured walnut and burr walnut veneer. The top surface displays a distinct quartered veneer pattern enclosed by a subtle border, while the body incorporates an upper storage compartment with a small dark round handle and open lower shelves for books and magazines. The woodwork is fully and professionally restored to showroom condition. Measuring 57 cm high, 53 cm wide, and 53 cm deep, this table suits placement at the end of a sofa or beside an armchair in a living room, providing a convenient surface for resting a cup or displaying small decorative items alongside integrated storage for everyday reading material.

FAQs

Designed during the interwar period, Art Deco book tables combine functional storage for literature with geometric silhouette forms and decorative wood veneers such as figured walnut.

Craftsmen frequently utilised solid hardwoods framed with highly figured timber veneers, including burr walnut, mahogany, and macassar ebony, often finished with nitrocellulose lacquer or French polish.

Authentic pieces display geometric panel layouts, hand-applied book-matched or quartered veneers, age-appropriate wear to original pulls, and solid timber secondary construction.

Position the piece beside a contemporary armchair or sofa to serve as an occasional table, using the lower compartments to organise books while keeping the top surface clear for lighting.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a quality beeswax polish periodically, avoiding direct sunlight, high heat, and wet containers to protect the veneer layer.
