Dealers Notes

Our stock includes early oak and walnut furniture from the 18th century, as well as more formal pieces from the Georgian period. Clocks, barometers and globes are complemented by Colonial cabinets, furniture and early arms. Their scientific instruments, which include early microscopes, telescopes and equipment such as sextants, provide a fascinating insight into the evolution of technology, whilst demonstrating fine artistry and craftsmanship. One of Hansord’s many exhibitions was entitled ‘From simplicity to complexity with a little eccentricity’ and this continues to be the guiding mantra behind their collection today.

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

Early 18th-century French provincial tables typically feature turned baluster or bobbin legs, sturdy stretcher supports, and native hardwoods such as yew, oak, or walnut. They combine functional rustic construction with refined classical proportions influenced by period Parisian design.

Cabinetmakers during this era utilised locally sourced timber like yew wood, fruitwood, oak, and walnut, finished with natural wax to highlight grain patterns. Hand-forged iron hardware and hand-dovetailed drawer joinery were standard construction methods.

Authentic pieces exhibit distinct irregular grain structures, hand-planed timber surfaces, and original joinery such as wooden pegs and hand-cut dovetails. Naturally occurring surface patination and uneven wear on footrests or stretcher bars further indicate historical age.

Position the table as a focal point in a hallway or study paired with contemporary lighting or modern artwork to create balanced contrast. The rich timber tones pair effectively with neutral plaster walls and minimalist decorative objects.

Keep the timber away from direct heat sources and prolonged sunlight to prevent drying or split joinery. Apply a light coat of high-quality beeswax annually to nourish the wood and maintain its original surface polish.
