Oak Side Table C.1690-1720 and Later.

17th century
Description

This very attractive side table may have started life as the base of a 17th century chest on stand, as time passed, chest and base were often separated.It is a lovely colour, patina and of excellent proportions. The top is later, the drawer has been rebuilt and the ball feet are replacements.

The original brass escutcheon suggests a lock, but there has never been one; locks were very expensive and on country furniture they were not always fitted. The ends are panelled.

Clearly, this is not a piece for the purist collector, but it is a 300 years old piece of furniture that is beautiful, useful and sensibly priced.

SIZE: 39.5 inches wide, 23.5 inches deep, 30 inches tall.

PROVENANCE: Oxfordshire Private Collection.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

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

Side tables from the late 17th and early 18th centuries typically feature turned baluster legs, shaped or scalloped aprons, flat or wavy stretchers, and single drawers fitted with teardrop or drop-loop brass handles.

Furniture of this era was constructed using solid English oak joined with hand-cut mortise and tenon joints, wooden pegs, and hand-dovetailed drawer boxes, often fitted with cast brass drop handles and escutcheons.

Authentic pieces exhibit signs of hand-planing on undersides, irregular peg placement, historic drawer wear, hand-forged nails or iron fittings, and natural patination inside timber grain that cannot be replicated by modern machinery.

An antique oak side table functions well in a modern hallway as a console, in a living room behind a sofa, or in a bedroom as an occasional table, contrasting warm wood tones against neutral plaster or painted walls.

Oak furniture should be kept away from direct heat sources and extreme humidity fluctuations. Regular dusting with a soft cloth and occasional applications of beeswax nourish the wood and preserve the historical surface patina.
