Antique Victorian Burr Walnut Oval Centre Dining Table 6 Seater Tilt Top

19th century
Description

An antique Victorian burr walnut centre or dining table of excellent quality with a beautifully figured oval top. The burr walnut veneer displays exceptional symmetrical figuring with rich colour and depth giving the piece real presence.

The table stands on a substantial turned central column with carved detail flowing down to elegant cabriole legs with carved accents and original ceramic castors. The proportions are well judged offering both presence and practicality as a six seater dining table while also working perfectly as a centre table.

A particularly desirable feature is the tilt top mechanism allowing the top to be raised vertically when not in use. This was a practical Victorian solution to save space and protect the surface and today adds versatility for modern living.

A decorative yet highly usable piece ideal for both classic and contemporary interiors and a strong example of mid 19th century craftsmanship.

Condition

Very good antique condition with a rich polished finish. Minor age related marks to the top as expected. The tilt mechanism works well and the base is solid and stable.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. 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.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

A Victorian tilt-top centre table is a 19th-century table design featuring a latch mechanism that allows the top to pivot vertically on its central pedestal, saving space when stored along a wall.

These pieces are predominantly crafted from solid hardwoods such as walnut or mahogany, with decorative burr walnut veneers applied to create intricate book-matched patterns across the surface.

Authentic pieces feature period brass or iron tilt-catch mechanisms, hand-carved pedestal columns with cabriole legs, and period-appropriate brass or ceramic castors.

A tilt-top table functions as a focal dining piece when open or can be stored vertically in an entrance hall or alcove to display the rich wood figure as an architectural element.

Care for the finish by regularly applying a high-grade beeswax polish, positioning the table away from direct heat or sunlight, and keeping humidity levels consistent to avoid veneer lift.
