Dealers Notes

Our stock includes early oak and walnut furniture from the 18th century, as well as more formal pieces from the Georgian period. Clocks, barometers and globes are complemented by Colonial cabinets, furniture and early arms. Their scientific instruments, which include early microscopes, telescopes and equipment such as sextants, provide a fascinating insight into the evolution of technology, whilst demonstrating fine artistry and craftsmanship. One of Hansord’s many exhibitions was entitled ‘From simplicity to complexity with a little eccentricity’ and this continues to be the guiding mantra behind their collection today.

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

Originating in Flanders during the Baroque period, Antwerp table cabinets were compact chests designed to rest on tables or dedicated stands. They featured intricate drawer layouts, central cupboard sections, and detailed oil paintings, functioning as private depositories for valuable items and curiosities.

These cabinets were typically constructed with oak or pine carcasses veneered in exotic woods such as ebony, rosewood, or tortoiseshell. Drawer fronts were frequently fitted with copper or wooden panels painted in oils, complemented by cast brass hinges and escutcheons.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-sawn secondary timbers, original iron or brass keyhole escutcheons, and ripple mouldings crafted using specialised hand planes. The interior painted panels typically show natural craquelure and age-related oxidisation in the varnish.

Place the cabinet atop a clean-lined console table or sideboard to serve as a focal point. Displaying it in a modern study or hallway creates a contrast between historical craftsmanship and contemporary architecture.

Keep the cabinet away from direct sunlight and fluctuating humidity levels to prevent timber movement and paint cracking. Dust delicate painted panels lightly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth without applying water or chemical cleaners.
