What is a quartetto table set?

A quartetto table set consists of four graduating tables designed to nest together. They save space when stored and can be positioned around a room when entertaining. Originating largely in the Regency period, these nests combine mobility with practical tabletop surface area.

How do I identify an Anglo-Indian table?

Anglo-Indian tables are distinguished by dense, intricate surface carvings and extensive use of bone or mother of pearl inlay. They frequently feature geometric or leaf motifs across octagonal or circular tops. Many of these pieces originated from production centres such as Hoshiarpur during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Where were work tables used?

Work tables were placed in sitting rooms and parlours to provide a dedicated workspace for needlework and small crafts. The internal compartments kept threads, needles, and fabrics organised. Victorian examples often feature hinged lids opening to fitted trays or suspended fabric bags.

An etagere is a freestanding piece of furniture comprising multiple open shelves for display. They were utilised to hold ornaments, books, and small decorative items. Edwardian and Victorian versions often incorporate rosewood frames with brass galleries and slender supports.
