How do I style a hall table?

Are these tables original antiques?

The selection spans authentic eighteenth, nineteenth and early twentieth-century items originating from English, French and Scandinavian workshops. Many retain their original painted surfaces or historic patination accrued over decades of domestic use.

Which woods were used?

Makers constructed these tables primarily using native softwoods like pine alongside hardwoods such as oak and fruitwood. Surfaces were then painted, bleached or polished depending on the regional style and period fashion.
