FAQs

The Queen Anne style emerged in the early 18th century, characterised by curved lines, pad feet, and a shift towards lighter, more graceful proportions compared to earlier heavy oak furniture.

These tables are traditionally constructed from native hardwoods such as oak or elm, utilising pegged mortise and tenon joints, hand-turned legs, and hinged drop leaves supported by swinging gate legs.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut joints, natural timber oxidisation, irregular grain patterns, hand-planed surfaces, and signs of age such as shrinkage cracks and wear around the feet.

An antique gateleg table adds warmth and character to modern spaces when paired with minimalist dining chairs or used as a versatile centre table styled with simple ceramic vessels.

Preserve antique oak by maintaining stable indoor humidity levels, avoiding direct sunlight, and periodically applying traditional beeswax to nourish the timber without sealing it with modern varnishes.
