This Edwardian nest of three tables follows an oval form in a rich brown mahogany timber with a smooth, polished finish. The trio demonstrates graduated sizing, featuring smooth oval tops and slender, gently curved legs connected by low perimeter stretchers that provide stability to each tier. Visible details include delicately moulded edges to the tabletops and subtle tapering along the upright supports. Practical for modern interiors, the suite measures 68 cm high, 63 cm wide, and 41 cm deep. The nesting design allows the smaller tables to slide neatly beneath the largest one when not in use. Placed beside an armchair or at the end of a sofa, the arrangement provides convenient surface space for lamps or drinks while maintaining an open feel in a sitting room or hallway.

FAQs

First designed in the late eighteenth century by cabinetmaker Thomas Sheraton, nested tables were created as space-saving occasional furniture for serving tea and entertaining in drawing rooms.

These tables were typically crafted from mahogany timber, featuring hand-fitted joinery, slender leg stretchers for structural stability, and polished top surfaces.

Authentic period pieces exhibit precise hand-cut joinery, original finish patination, and smooth wear along the under-runners where smaller tables slide beneath the larger frame.

Position the nested stack beside a sofa for compact utility, or stagger them slightly to display lamps, books, and decorative objects at varying heights.

Dust surfaces regularly with a dry lint-free cloth, apply clear beeswax along the grain twice yearly, and keep the wood away from direct radiators or damp conditions.
