FAQs

Late 18th-century demilune card tables, typical of the Georgian, Hepplewhite, and Sheraton periods, feature semi-circular profiles designed to sit flush against a wall when closed. They incorporate fold-over tops that open into full circular gaming surfaces, supported by a hinged rear leg mechanism, and often display neoclassical motifs such as fan inlays and tapered legs.

These tables were primarily crafted using dense mahogany frames and flame mahogany veneers, often accented with contrasting timber inlays such as satinwood, boxwood, and ebony for decorative fan medallions and stringing.

Authentic period examples feature hand-cut dovetails on internal gate-leg mechanisms, original brass stop-hinges mortised into the top edge, and hand-planed secondary timbers like pine or oak on the underside. Natural timber shrinkage over centuries often causes slight oval distortion along the grain.

When closed, a demilune card table functions as a hallway or entryway console table, providing a shallow surface for lamps and decorative objects. It can be unfolded for occasional seating or gaming when additional surface area is required.

Dust regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and apply high-grade beeswax twice yearly to protect the finish. Position the table away from direct sunlight, radiators, and damp walls to prevent timber movement, veneer lifting, or finish fading.
