FAQs

A Canterbury is a low, portable wooden rack designed in late 18th-century England with vertical dividers, originally built to hold sheet music or periodicals near a piano or seating area.

Georgian Canterburys were typically crafted from solid mahogany or rosewood, featuring hand-dovetailed drawers, slatted divisions, and brass castors for mobility.

Authentic 19th-century pieces display hand-cut dovetail joints on the drawer, period-correct brass castors, natural oxidisation on the timber underside, and aged wear around the turned leg bases.

Place the piece beside an armchair or sofa as an accent table, using the divided sections to store art books, magazines, or vinyl records.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a quality beeswax polish twice yearly to preserve the timbers patination and protect against moisture.
