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

Hepplewhite style furniture from the late 18th century is characterised by subtle curves, elegant proportions, and refined outlines. Card tables of this period frequently featured serpentine fronts, tapered or slender French cabriole legs, and flame mahogany veneers.

These tables were typically constructed using solid mahogany or oak frame substructures faced with fine mahogany veneers. Key construction details include hand-cut dovetail joints, gate-leg or rear double-hip movement mechanisms, and baize-lined interiors.

Authentic pieces demonstrate hand-planed secondary timbers under the frame, original iron hinges, hand-carved details, and natural oxidisation on untouched wood surfaces. The weight of dense West Indian or Cuban mahogany is also a key identifier.

When folded, a card table functions as a slim console table suitable for entryways or living room alcoves. Pairing the dark mahogany wood with modern art or clean-lined table lamps creates a balanced, eclectic aesthetic.

Mahogany furniture should be dusted regularly with a soft, dry lint-free cloth and polished occasionally using beeswax. Keep the table away from direct sunlight, radiators, and high-humidity areas to prevent veneer lifting or surface bleaching.
