This Victorian demi-lune card table dates from 1880 and takes the form of a fold-over console crafted from warm brown mahogany. The semi-circular top opens along a smooth edge above a plain mahogany frieze finished with shaped aprons. It stands on turned tapering legs ending in pad feet, presenting a practical and compact silhouette suited to traditional English country house interiors. Measuring 75 cm high, 70.5 cm wide, and 69.5 cm deep with a closed depth of 34.5 cm, the table fits neatly against a narrow wall space or hallway. It functions effectively as a console table for display or as a game table when unfolded for entertaining guests in a living room, study, or landing.

FAQs

A demi-lune card table is a semicircular table designed during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, featuring a fold-over leaf supported by a gateleg mechanism to create a circular surface for playing card games.

Traditional card tables were primarily constructed using solid mahogany, walnut, or rosewood, often incorporating brass flap hinges, hand-cut joinery, and an interior playing surface lined with felt or baize.

Authentic antique card tables feature signs of age including natural timber oxidation, hand-carved leg details, original brass hinges, and a swinging gateleg mechanism that supports the open leaf.

When folded, a demi-lune table functions as a compact console table against a wall in a hallway, reception room, or landing, decorated with a lamp, vase, or decorative tray.

Maintain mahogany timber by dusting regularly with a clean microfibre cloth, applying natural beeswax periodically, and placing the table away from direct sunlight and radiators to avoid warping or drying.
