Why Sellingantiques dated this piece to THE EDWARDIAN ERA:
Anthemion cresting and fluted pilasters: classic Edwardian revival metalwork.
Solid oak plinth on turned feet: cabinet work typical around 1910.
Natural oxidisation in the brass crevices: honest age from handling and polishing.
Heavy cast gong with chisel-cut patterning: period manufacture before modern pressings.

This Independent Date Guide was compiled by Sellingantiques using its own proprietary system. It works only from the photographs shown on this page and is never told the date the dealer has declared. It is a guide, not a guarantee of age, and occasional errors can occur.

FAQs

In Edwardian households, tabletop dinner gongs were used to signal mealtimes to household members and guests across larger residences, combining practical utility with decorative display.

These items were commonly crafted using cast or spun sheet brass for the gong disc and support frame, set into a solid hardwood base such as oak, mahogany, or walnut, accompanied by a fabric-wrapped striker.

Authentic period pieces feature period-appropriate metal joinery, hand-finished brass arches, natural patination, and timber plinths displaying historic wear alongside classic design features like shell or anthemion motifs.

Place the gong on a hallway console table, dining room sideboard, or library bookshelf to serve as an intriguing metalwork accent within traditional or eclectic room schemes.

Dust the timber base using a soft, dry cloth and apply beeswax sparingly to preserve the wood finish, while cleaning the brass element gently without harsh chemicals to retain its age-earned surface patina.
