FAQs

First commissioned in the late 18th century, a Canterbury is a low wooden rack designed with vertical partitions to hold sheet music, bound music volumes, or loose papers, often fitted with castors for mobility within a drawing room.

authentic early 19th-century Canterburys are primarily constructed from solid dense timbers such as mahogany, rosewood, or walnut, complemented by hand-cut dovetail drawer joints and brass castors.

Authentic pieces display hand-carved detailing, natural timber oxidation, period-correct brass hardware, hand-cut joinery on the drawer carcass, and light wear around the original brass castors.

In contemporary settings, a Canterbury functions effectively beside a sofa or armchair as a dedicated storage rack for modern periodicals, art books, or tablets.

Dust regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply beeswax twice yearly to nourish the mahogany, keeping the item away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight to prevent timber warping and finish bleaching.
