How do I care for burr walnut furniture?

Burr walnut requires stable environmental conditions away from direct sunlight and extreme humidity fluctuations to protect the delicate veneer and underlying timber. Regular dusting with a soft dry cloth and occasional application of appropriate furniture wax helps maintain the lustre of the polished surface.

What is the difference between a credenza and a pier cabinet?

A credenza is typically a low, broad cabinet featuring a central cupboard flanked by curved glass doors, often fitted with porcelain plaques or marquetry. A pier cabinet is a taller, narrower piece built to fit the wall space between windows, usually housing a single glass-fronted display section.

Where were these tables used originally?

Occasional tables, centre tables, and games tables were placed in the principal entertaining spaces of nineteenth-century homes, such as drawing rooms and libraries. They served multiple functions, ranging from the display of decorative objects to hosting card games and writing correspondence.
