How do I date a painted table?

Dating relies on combining the construction timber, the style of the leg carving, and the composition of the paint or lacquer layers. Earlier pieces show hand-tool marks and traditional joinery. Twentieth-century interpretations often adopt older aesthetic models like Queen Anne or Louis XV while utilising twentieth-century manufacturing techniques and modern paint formulations.

Where should I place a console table?

Console tables suit entrance halls, narrow corridors, or living room walls where floor space is limited. Their shallow depth allows them to sit flush against a wall. Pairing a console table with a mirror or placing a lamp upon its marble or wooden top creates a balanced focal point in a room.

How do I care for lacquered surfaces?

Lacquered and painted surfaces require dusting with a soft, dry cloth to prevent micro-abrasions. Avoid chemical polishes and keep pieces away from direct sunlight. Excessive moisture damages aged paint and lacquer, so use coasters beneath glasses and wipe up spills immediately.

What is the difference between occasional and side tables?

Side tables typically serve a functional purpose against a wall or beside seating, often incorporating drawers or lower shelves. Occasional tables are generally smaller and lighter. Occasional tables move easily around a room as needed for temporary tasks, whereas side tables remain fixed in position.
