What is a cricket table?

A cricket table is a small three-legged occasional table with a round wooden top, commonly made from oak or elm during the eighteenth century. The three splayed legs provided steady placement on uneven domestic floors. These versatile tables served various everyday household functions, functioning beside chairs or against walls for holding small objects or lighting.

How do I identify a seventeenth century oak table?

Seventeenth century oak tables display heavy pegged joinery, thick timber planks, and substantial stretchers connecting the legs. Tool marks and hand-riven wood surfaces often remain visible on the underside and drawer components. Patina accumulated over centuries gives the wood a deep, dark lustre that modern reproductions cannot replicate.

What is the difference between a lowboy and a side table?

A lowboy is a specific form of small table equipped with one or more rows of drawers beneath the surface, historically used for dressing or personal grooming. Side tables may have drawers or simply provide an open surface. Lowboys generally date from the eighteenth century and display finer cabinet work, often featuring shaped aprons and cabriole or straight legs.
