How do I tilt the table top safely?

Most tables use a brass catch or wooden locking pin beneath the top. Release this mechanism carefully while supporting the surface to prevent sudden movement. Ensure any items are removed from the table before lowering or raising the surface to avoid damage.

Can I use a tilt table for dining?

Larger Victorian breakfast and supper tables accommodate intimate dining for two to four guests. Their sturdy pedestals provide adequate legroom around the circular top. Smaller wine and lamp versions suit drinks and display rather than seated meals.

How do I care for walnut veneer?

Keep walnut furniture away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent the veneers from drying and cracking. Dust gently with a dry cloth and apply occasional specialist wax. Avoid placing damp glasses directly on the polished surface to prevent water rings.

How do I distinguish Georgian from Victorian pieces?

Georgian tables often feature simpler red walnut timber, snap-top mechanisms, and tripod bases with pad or snake feet. They date from the eighteenth century. Victorian examples frequently incorporate burr walnut veneers, elaborate marquetry inlay, and central pillar bases with carved cabriole legs.
