FAQs

Victorian games tables gained popularity during the 19th century as parlour pastimes became a central feature of middle-class social life, often incorporating dual-purpose designs for writing, sewing, or board games.

These tables were typically constructed from dense hardwoods like walnut, mahogany, or rosewood, frequently featuring burr veneers, inlaid marquetry or wood mosaic for chess boards, and sturdy turned pedestals with tripod bases.

Authenticity is indicated by traditional joinery methods, hand-cut screws, natural timber oxidisation, patination consistent with age, and period-specific mechanisms for folding or supporting drop leaves.

An antique games table can function as a versatile accent piece in a living room or study, paired with contemporary seating to create an eclectic contrast or styled simply with a vintage decorative object when not in use.

Preserve antique walnut by keeping it out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources to prevent veneer cracking, and maintain the finish using microcrystalline wax rather than modern silicone polishes.
