We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

This Georgian occasional table from the 18th century consists of a dark brown mahogany supper table measuring 87 cm wide, 73 cm high and 87 cm deep. The circular top displays a central carved acanthus leaf rosette surrounded by eight circular dished recesses, interspersed with carved shell motifs along the scalloped edge. The tilt-top mechanism rests on a turned column above a bird cage saddle, supported by a tripod base with carved cabriole legs terminating in pad feet. Suited for traditional English country house interiors, the piece functions well in a fireplace alcove as a display surface or occasional table. It brings period character to a reception room or study when positioned near seating.

FAQs

An 18th-century supper table, popular during the Georgian period, is a specialised tilt-top occasional table featuring carved dished recesses designed to hold plates, bowls, and cutlery during informal evening meals.

These tables were typically crafted from solid mahogany, featuring a single-plank or joined circular top with hand-carved dished recesses, a central carved pedestal stem, and hand-dovetailed tripod cabriole legs.

Authentic 18th-century pieces display hand-cut joinery, a tilt-top catch mechanism made of iron or brass, asymmetric hand carving, and appropriate timber shrinkage along the grain of the mahogany top.

Positioned against a wall with the top tilted vertically, the intricate hand carvings act as a sculptural focal point, or placed flat alongside seating as an occasional drink table.

Maintain the timber by dusting regularly with a microfibre cloth, applying a high-quality beeswax polish annually, and keeping the piece away from direct heat sources and sudden humidity changes.
