We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

This Georgian lowboy is an eighteenth-century side table constructed from solid yew wood with a warm brown finish. The well-figured top sits above three dovetailed drawers fitted with original small round metal knob handles. Below the drawers, the frieze has a distinctive shaped and scalloped apron edge that adds decorative movement to the silhouette. The table is raised on four slender cabriole legs terminating in pointed pad feet. Small repairs are visible on the feet, consistent with the age of the piece. It stands 70 cm high, 82 cm wide, and 54 cm deep. In a modern home, this side table fits well in a variety of settings, such as beside the front door as an entryway table for keys and post, or in a hallway or living room as a decorative surface. The classic English country house style allows it to blend easily with both traditional and contemporary interiors.

FAQs

A lowboy is a small table with drawers, originating in the 18th century across Britain and North America, designed primarily to serve as a dressing table or side table.

Georgian lowboys were crafted from native hardwoods like yew, walnut, mahogany, and oak, featuring hand-planed tops, dovetailed drawer joints, and hand-carved cabriole or turned legs.

Authentic period pieces display irregular hand-cut dovetails, historic wear around the feet and handles, hand-sawn timber marks on the back, and the dense grain structure and warm patination unique to yew wood.

An antique lowboy functions as an entryway console, a compact bedroom dressing table, or an occasional side table alongside contemporary upholstered furniture.

Maintain a stable indoor climate away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent timber shrinkage, and apply a natural beeswax polish periodically to preserve the patination.
