The Sustainable Choice

FAQs

Popular throughout the mid-to-late 19th century, breakfast tables (often referred to as loo tables) were designed for informal dining or placement in central reception rooms. Craftsmanship focused on showcasing highly figurative veneers, such as burr walnut, frequently embellished with floral marquetry inlay.

These pieces were typically constructed using a solid timber frame, such as walnut or mahogany, topped with burr walnut veneers. Intricate designs featured marquetry executed in contrasting woods, supported by carved walnut pedestals and legs.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-cut timber veneers, age-appropriate patination, and original brass tilt-latch mechanisms beneath the tabletop. Examining the underside reveals hand-carved joinery, original brass castors, and natural wood shrinkage.

An antique walnut table functions as a focal point in an entryway or formal dining area. Combining the figure-grained wood with contemporary minimalist dining chairs creates a balanced contrast between traditional craftsmanship and modern design.

To preserve the finish, position the table away from direct sunlight and artificial heat sources to prevent veneer lifting or fading. Clean regularly using a soft dry cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish occasionally to nourish the timber.
