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

George III tripod tables, produced between 1760 and 1820, are characterized by a central turned baluster column resting on three cabriole legs. These pieces were designed for flexibility and ease of movement in eighteenth-century English living spaces.

Cabinetmakers primarily utilised Cuban and West Indian mahogany for its strength, dense grain, and rich colour. Construction techniques involved hand-cut dovetails, turned columns, and solid timber tops or box structures.

Authentic pieces feature signs of age such as uneven hand-planed surfaces, hand-cut dovetail joinery in drawer construction, natural timber shrinkage over time, and original iron or brass underside fittings.

Position the piece as an occasional side table beside an armchair, within a reading nook, or in a fireplace alcove to provide functional surface area while incorporating historical texture into a modern design scheme.

Apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year using a soft cloth, buffing along the grain. Keep the item away from direct heat sources and damp areas to prevent wood movement and finish deterioration.
