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

Popularised during the Georgian era, a tripod table features a three-legged base supporting a turned central column and a compact top, historically used for serving tea or supporting oil lamps and candles.

These tables were typically crafted from solid dense hardwoods such as oak, mahogany, or walnut, joined using hand-cut dovetails and turned on a lathe.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-carved detailing, irregular hand-sawn underside marks, natural shrinkage along timber grain lines, and original hand-forged iron or wooden joinery.

Small tripod tables function well as occasional side tables beside an armchair, positioned in narrow alcoves, or used as stands for sculptural items and table lamps.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply high-grade beeswax sparingly along the grain, avoiding direct heat sources and radiators to prevent timber movement.
