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

A nest of tables consists of a set of graduated tables designed to stack neatly beneath one another to save floor space when not in use. The Chinoiserie style emerged in Western Europe during the seventeenth century as craftsmen imitated East Asian artistic techniques and lacquered finishes.

These items are usually constructed from hardwoods coated with dark ebonised lacquer or varnish. Decorative elements are applied using gold paint or hand-gilded metal leaf to depict traditional floral, figural, or mythical motifs.

Authentic pieces often display hand-carved details, traditional joinery techniques, and subtle wear consistent with age on the sliding runners. Hand-painted gilded decoration will show natural patination, fine craquelure, and slight variations across each individual table top.

Position the set stacked alongside a sofa or armchair as a space-saving side table, pulling out individual tables when entertaining guests. The dark ebonised finish and gold accents contrast effectively against neutral walls and contemporary soft furnishings.

Dust surfaces regularly using a clean, dry, soft microfibre cloth without commercial aerosol polishes or water. Keep the piece away from direct sunlight, damp areas, and heat sources to prevent cracking, lifting, or fading of the lacquer and gilding.
