FAQs

Georgian side tables, produced between 1714 and 1830, are characterised by classical proportions, symmetry, and functional elegance. Typically constructed from dense timbers like mahogany, these tables feature refined design elements such as square tapered legs or turned legs, reflecting Neo-Classical influences of the period.

Craftsmen predominantly utilised solid mahogany and Cuban mahogany due to its durability and deep colour. Construction techniques involved hand-cut dovetail joints on drawer linings, secondary woods such as pine or oak for interior drawer boxes, and hand-turned wooden or brass knobs.

Authentic Georgian pieces display signs of hand craft, such as irregular hand-cut dovetail joints and original hand-planed underside surfaces. Look for natural shrinkage indicators on timber boards, historical drawer lining papers or unpainted secondary timbers, and subtle wear consistent with age.

A Georgian side table functions well as a hallway console, bedside unit, or living room lamp table. Pair the warm wood tones with modern ceramic lamps, minimalist artwork, or metallic accents to create a balanced contrast between traditional craftsmanship and modern design.

Keep mahogany furniture away from direct sunlight and central heating sources to prevent timber movement or cracking. Clean the surface using a dry microfibre cloth and apply a beeswax polish annually, buffing along the grain to preserve the natural patina.
