This pair of Edwardian occasional tables dates from 1910 and takes the form of small folding coaching tables. Each piece stands on an X-frame base and supports an octagonal top fitted with a hinged folding mechanism in brass. The construction combines mahogany and mixed woods finished in warm brown and dark paint. Both tops display hand-painted floral motifs in cream, green, and yellow tones. The tables show visible wood grain, natural variations in the timber finish, and light surface wear consistent with age and use. Practical for modern interiors, these portable items suit placement beside an armchair or at the end of a sofa to hold drinks, books, or lamps, folding flat when not in use to save space in compact rooms.

FAQs

Coaching tables were designed during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries as portable, folding tables that could be stowed onto horse-drawn coaches, providing temporary surfaces for meals or writing whilst travelling.

These tables are typically constructed from dense hardwoods such as mahogany, oak, or fruitwood, featuring hinged folding tops and X-frame supports secured with brass fittings.

Look for hand-cut joints, original metal hinges, surface wear along folding stress points, and authentic age patina across the timber and hand-painted decorative elements.

Place them as accent tables beside armchairs or sofa ends, or fold and store them away to serve as flexible temporary surfaces during social gatherings.

Dust surfaces regularly with a dry, lint-free cloth, keep the items away from direct heat or moisture source to prevent paint flaking, and apply natural beeswax to unpainted timber elements.
