Apartment entrance display. Being terribly overstocked, (but not complaining) I’ve taken this walnut entrance table to my apartment to create more shop space and over decorate my entrance! My usual entrance pieces are also quite out of my usual style, but having a retro 1970 built apartment, I wanted something different from the interior at the door. Not my usual style or periods, but had to have these unique pieces✨✨
A decorative glass top occasional table, with golden toned cast iron lotus leaves. The glass top accentuates the beautiful stepped leaf design. All I have on mine at home is a scented candle. The striking beauty for all to see. H. 53.5cm Dia. 61cm
I’m very happy to present this outstanding first half 18th century English oak side table. I’m explaining this table in full detail, to show why I love English country oak, elm, chestnut, ash, fruitwoods, walnut and beech, as no two pieces really are quite the same. (Unlike town pieces, especially 18th – 19th century mahogany’s, predictably perfect.) Such an interesting table, with various periods included in the making.

18th Century English Country oak Wine Table. The well patinated, circular tilt top, on a turned central column, resting on three out-swept cabriole legs. This is a great example of how to maintain period furniture, without over restoration. Most important to me is the originality of anything I sell. All this table requires is a slight re glue and re wax finishing. C.1780 H 70cm Dia 76cm

A delightful 19th century European figured walnut entrance, hall, side, console table, of narrow proportions.

18th century English oak lowboy. Another piece purchased last week that still requires a clean up and re wax finishing. I’ll carefully remove much of the later polish, bring back to a lighter oak, then re wax finish. Later brass work, I’ll probably replace with period style swan-neck handles.
