FAQs

A dumb waiter is a piece of tiered occasional furniture introduced during the 18th century, designed to hold condiments, desserts, and wine to allow dining guests to serve themselves without servants present.

These pieces were predominantly constructed from solid dense mahogany, featuring turned central pillars, moulded circular trays, and tripod bases with cabriole legs or pad feet.

Authentic Georgian examples typically feature graduated revolving tiers, hand-turned central supports, original brass castors or pad feet, and natural timber patination consistent with age.

A tiered stand functions as an accent table in a dining room, a drinks stand for spirits and glassware in a living area, or a display stand for ceramics in a well-lit corner.

Dust regularly with a soft microfibre cloth, apply a high-quality beeswax polish sparingly once or twice a year along the timber grain, and keep the piece away from direct heat sources and damp environments.
