This George III tilt-top tripod table is formed from dark brown mahogany with a visible polished grain and a traditional wax finish. The oval top is detailed with a scalloped pie-crust edge and rests in the upright vertical position on a turned central column supported by three curving cabriole legs terminating in pad feet. The antique table shows surface wear and an old split repair across the timber top, retaining its period patina. Measuring 71 cm high by 81 cm wide and 81 cm deep with a maximum height of 116 cm, the occasional piece functions as a decorative accent in an empty corner of a living room, hallway or study. The versatile occasional table provides a practical surface for display or daily use when lowered, or stands neatly against a wall when tilted upright. The compact Georgian design suits traditional country house interiors as well as contemporary period homes. The sturdy tripod base ensures stability on a variety of flooring surfaces while maintaining a graceful silhouette characteristic of late eighteenth-century English cabinet-making.

FAQs

A George III pie crust tilt top table is an 18th-century British occasional table featuring a raised scalloped rim around the circular top and a hinged catch that allows the tabletop to pivot vertically.

These tables were crafted predominantly from dense mahogany, utilizing turned central pedestals, dovetailed wooden blocks, and hand-carved cabriole legs supported by iron or brass latch mechanisms.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-planed marks on the undersides, period-appropriate timber shrinkage across the grain, original brass catch hardware, and hand-carved moulded edges.

Positioned alongside an armchair or within an unoccupied space, the table functions as a functional surface when flat, or as a carved wooden feature when tilted upright.

Dust regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply beeswax polish sparingly once per year while keeping the piece away from direct sunlight, radiators, and high humidity.
