FAQs

Originating in the late eighteenth century and gaining popularity throughout the nineteenth century, canterburys and folio stands were designed with vertical compartments to store sheet music, prints, or bound periodicals. In French interiors, these pieces were crafted as decorative accent tables, often placed in salons or music rooms.

French stands from this era were typically constructed from hardwoods such as walnut, beech, or mahogany. Craftsmen utilised hand-carving techniques to create openwork fretwork partitions and cabriole legs, frequently applying gold leaf or gilding over gesso to highlight architectural details.

Authentic pieces feature asymmetrical scrollwork, naturalistic foliage motifs, and hand-cut joinery such as mortise and tenon joints. Look for natural wear along the gilded highlights, aged patina on unvarnished underside timber, and hand-carved tool marks rather than uniform machine moulding.

A carved folio stand functions as a versatile side table beside a sofa or reading chair. The vertical slots can hold oversized art books, records, or magazines, introducing sculptural timber texture and subtle gilded tones into modern living spaces.

Dust the detailed carving gently using a soft, dry camel-hair brush or microfibre cloth to avoid lifting delicate gold leaf. Keep the item away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent the timber from warping or the gilded gesso layer from cracking.
