FAQs

The canterbury originated in the late 18th century in England, traditionally designed as a stand for holding sheet music or folios, and is named after the Archbishop of Canterbury who reportedly commissioned the first design.

Authentic period pieces were predominantly crafted from fine hardwoods such as mahogany, rosewood, or satinwood, featuring joined or pegged construction, slender spindle dividers, and often incorporating low drawers and castors.

Authenticity is identified through timber characteristics, hand-cut joinery, period-appropriate brass castors, natural oxidisation and wear consistent with age, and construction methods specific to 18th or 19th-century cabinet making.

This versatile piece can function beside a sofa or armchair as a refined storage solution for magazines, books, or vinyl records, adding historical character and texture to a modern living space.

Preservation involves keeping the timber away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent drying or cracking, and occasionally treating the surface with traditional beeswax rather than modern silicone polishes.
