We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment.

This Victorian tilt top table exhibits a folk art style with a later painted petal design across its circular surface. The mahogany timber base incorporates carved tripod legs ending in lions' paw feet on castors, complemented by a pedestal with painted stripes and a deep skirt beneath the top. The hand-painted polychrome decoration displays swirling patterns in shades of green, red, yellow, purple, black, and white. The mechanism allows the top to tilt smoothly for storage. The piece measures 73.5 cm high by 105 cm wide and 105 cm deep, standing 136 cm high when tilted. Placed in an empty corner or hallway, the table functions as a practical surface for display or seats four people when used for dining.

FAQs

A Victorian tilt-top table, also known as a snap table, features a circular or oval top attached to a central column via a catch mechanism, allowing the surface to tilt vertically when not in use.

These tables were typically crafted from solid hardwoods such as mahogany, oak, or walnut, featuring turned central pillars, brass tilt catches, and tripod legs with carved feet.

Authentic period examples feature original brass spring catches on the underside, hand-cut joinery, wear consistent with age on the tilt mechanism, and hand-carved tripod base details.

Position the table with the top tilted vertically against a wall or in an empty corner to showcase its decorative pattern, or lower the tabletop to use it as a functional side table alongside seating.

Dust gently using a soft, dry microfibre cloth and avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive polishes that could lift or damage original or later decorative paintwork.
