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

Regency furniture, dating from roughly 1811 to 1830, is characterised by neoclassical influences, symmetry, and exotic timber veneers such as rosewood and mahogany. Designs frequently feature brass inlay, metal mounts, turned pedestals, and splayed legs inspired by ancient Greek and Roman forms.

Cabinetmakers during the Regency era favoured dark, highly figured woods like Brazilian rosewood and Cuban mahogany. Decorative details were typically achieved through brass stringing, cut brass foliage inlays, and cast brass capped toes or castors.

Authentic Regency brass inlay is flush with the wood surface, cut precisely, and often fixed into hand-cut grooves in the veneer. Natural oxidisation and slight shrinkage of the surrounding timber over time often create subtle texture variations that distinguish genuine pieces from modern reproductions.

When closed, a fold-over tea table functions as a compact console table against a wall or behind a sofa. Opening the swivel top expands the surface area, making it suitable for serving tea or displaying decorative objects in formal dining rooms and living spaces.

Dust the surface regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and apply high-quality beeswax sparingly to nourish the timber. Avoid positioning the table in direct sunlight or near central heating radiators to prevent veneer lifting and timber movement around the brass inlay.
