This Victorian centre table is formed from warm brown walnut and burr walnut with fruitwood floral marquetry inlay around the circular rim. The tilting top reveals a prominent burr walnut grain pattern, supported by a turned pedestal column and three carved scroll feet fitted with castors. The timber shows natural variations in grain and colour across the circular surface. The piece measures 73 cm high, 130 cm wide, and 130 cm deep. It serves as a striking focal point in a traditional drawing room, large hallway, or spacious study, functioning as a display surface or occasional table when lowered and a space-saving feature when tilted.

FAQs

A Victorian centre table is a decorative and functional round or oval table designed to be placed in the middle of a room or entrance hall. Popular during the 19th century, these tables often featured elaborate wood veneers, floral marquetry, and tilt-top mechanisms.

Victorian marquetry tables typically feature a core structure of pine or mahogany topped with decorative burr walnut, rosewood, or mahogany veneers. The inlaid patterns use contrasting fruitwoods, boxwood, and stained timber to create detailed floral or geometric motifs.

Authentic Victorian tilt-top tables feature heavy brass snap-latches beneath the tabletop, hand-cut wood veneers, and carved central pedestals with tripod or quadform legs. Look for natural oxidation on metal fittings and hand-jointed timber construction beneath the top.

Place the table as a central focal point in an entry foyer or large living room, or use it as a compact dining table. Pairing dark walnut finishes with contemporary seating or minimalist decor highlights the craftsmanship of the inlay while balancing the interior.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year along the direction of the wood grain. Keep the table away from direct sunlight, radiators, and moisture to prevent veneer movement and cracking.
