The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

A canterbury is a low, compartmentalized wooden stand designed during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Named after the Archbishop of Canterbury who originally commissioned one, it features vertical dividers created specifically to hold sheet music or bound volumes.

Traditional canterburys were constructed from hardwoods like mahogany, rosewood, or painted softwoods. They feature carved or slatted dividers, hand-dovetailed base drawers for storing smaller accessories, and turned legs fitted with brass castors for easy mobility.

Authentic Regency pieces typically display period joinery, including hand-cut dovetails inside the drawer and original brass castors secured with fitted caps or screws. Surface finish should exhibit natural age wear, patination, or historic paint craquelure consistent with two centuries of use.

While originally designed for sheet music, a canterbury functions well as a magazine holder, book rack, or art print storage unit. Placing it adjacent to a reading chair, sofa, or desk adds historical character while providing functional storage.

Dust painted wooden surfaces regularly with a soft, dry lint-free cloth. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners, solvent-based polishes, and direct exposure to intense sunlight or heat sources to prevent paint flaking, timber shrinkage, and discolouration.
