FAQs

A pier table is a narrow wall-adjacent table, historically designed to sit in the space or pier between two windows or within a hallway.

These tables were constructed with carved timber frames coated in gessoa mixture of chalk and gluewhich was carved, water-gilded with gold leaf, and fitted with a shaped marble surface.

Authentic 19th-century giltwood displays natural wear along raised edges revealing red or grey clay bole under the gilding, alongside hand-carved joinery underneath the gesso layer.

Position a pier table in a narrow corridor or entrance hall beneath a modern mirror to balance classical gilt ornamentation with contemporary minimalism.

Dust gently using a soft dry brush, avoiding water or chemical cleaning solutions that dissolve gesso and lift delicate gold leafing.
