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.

Originating in the late eighteenth century, a Canterbury is a partitioned wooden stand designed to hold sheet music, bound volumes, or periodicals, reportedly named after the Archbishop of Canterbury who commissioned the initial design.

These pieces were typically crafted from solid mahogany or rosewood, featuring hand-cut dovetail joints in the drawers, slatted or carved dividers, turned corner pillars, and brass castors.

Authentic pieces from the George IV era display features such as turned corner finials, period brass castors, reeded or slatted dividers, and hand-jointed drawers with original timber or brass knobs.

A mahogany Canterbury functions effectively as a magazine holder beside an armchair, placed at the end of a sofa, or positioned alongside a desk for organising paperwork and publications.

Maintain the timber surface by dusting regularly with a dry, soft cloth and applying a natural beeswax polish twice yearly, ensuring the piece is kept away from direct heat sources to prevent wood movement or shrinkage.
