What were these tables used for?

Georgian and Regency households utilised these versatile pieces as side tables against walls during the day. When guests arrived, the tops flipped open to accommodate tea service or card games. Their dual nature made them essential for entertaining in parlours and drawing rooms where space remained at a premium.

How do I date a mahogany table?

Dating relies on observing the prevailing style, cabinetmaking techniques, and secondary timbers used in the frame. Georgian pieces often show straight legs or intricate carving, while Regency examples feature sabre legs and brass mounts. Construction marks and the specific depth of the mahogany colour further help narrow the era of production.

Can I use one as a desk?

Many card and writing tables share similar proportions, making them suitable for occasional laptop or paperwork use when opened. However, you should consider the interior depth and clearance for your knees. Lined surfaces on card tables, often featuring baize or leather, require care to preserve their historical condition if used daily.
