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 concertina action tea table is an 18th-century folding table equipped with a hinged wooden frame that expands outward, allowing the rear legs to extend evenly and support the unfolded tabletop.

Georgian tea tables were primarily crafted from solid mahogany or mahogany veneers, often utilizing secondary woods such as oak or pine for internal framing and drawer linings.

Authentic 18th-century examples feature hand-cut joinery, hand-carved cabriole or tapered legs, age-appropriate timber shrinkage, and original wooden concertina or gate-leg hinges.

Position the piece folded flat against a wall as a hallway console table, or place it behind a sofa to serve as an accent table for decorative objects and lighting.

Maintain the finish by dusting with a dry microfibre cloth and applying a natural beeswax polish annually, keeping the item away from direct sunlight and radiator heat sources.
