How do I operate a concertina action card table?

The hinged top unfolds while the rear frame pulls outward like an expanding bellows to support the opened leaf from beneath. This design distributes weight across four corners rather than relying on a single swing leg.

Were these tables used exclusively for cards?

Many models served multiple domestic functions, doubling as tea tables during afternoon hosting and writing desks when closed. Interior wells often stored cards, counters or writing materials between uses.

How do I tell a Georgian table from a Victorian one?

Georgian pieces typically feature cleaner architectural lines, subtle stringing and lighter proportions with tapered or cabriole legs. Victorian examples tend to be heavier, frequently utilising pedestal bases, bolder mouldings and richer, darker mahogany finishes.

Can I use a fold table for everyday dining?

Certain larger tea or dining formats accommodate meals when fully opened, though older joints require care with heavy loads. Using heat mats and protective covers preserves the polished veneer and historic baize surfaces.
