FAQs

Originating in the 16th and 17th centuries, cricket tables are three-legged occasional tables named after the three wooden stumps used in the game of cricket. Their three-legged structure was designed to ensure stability on uneven stone, brick, or earthen floors in rural homes and taverns.

These tables were primarily constructed from native British hardwoods, predominantly oak, pine, or elm. They feature mortise and tenon joinery secured with wooden dowels, a circular planked top, and a lower triangular stretcher or undertier shelf that reinforces the legs.

Authentic period examples demonstrate hand-hewn woodwork, pegged joinery rather than modern screws, and irregular wear consistent with age. Look for signs of hand-planing on the underside, natural shrinkage along the timber grain, and a deep, oxidised surface finish.

An oak cricket table serves as an occasional side table beside an armchair or sofa. Its compact footprint also fits into alcoves or entrance halls, providing a surface for lighting, ceramics, or books while adding historical contrast to contemporary interiors.

Dust the surface regularly with a soft, dry lint-free cloth. Apply a high-quality beeswax polish sparingly once or twice a year to nourish the timber, preserving the natural finish and protecting against moisture loss.
