How do I spot a Regency table?

Regency dark rosewood tea tables display architectural proportions, brass inlay, and pedestal bases with carved lyres or paw feet. They often feature rosewood crossbanding and satinwood stringing that reflect classical design influences from the early nineteenth century.

What is an Anglo-Indian table?

These tables are furniture pieces made in India during the colonial period, typically featuring dense padauk or hardwood. They are distinguished by intricate chip-carving and bone inlay depicting foliage and animal motifs, frequently associated with Hoshiarpur.

How were tea tables used?

Tea tables served as the centrepiece for afternoon and evening hospitality in the drawing room, holding porcelain teapots and cups. Many featured fold-over tops that could be closed against the wall when tea service finished to create more floor space.

A caddy top refers to a hinged lid resembling a tea caddy box, fitted to the top of work tables and teapoys. This design allowed the surface to lift and reveal interior compartments for storing sewing items or tea leaves.
