l
In Georgian
times dining tended to be a rather private affair and due to this,
dining tables tended to be rather small such as Pembroke
breakfast tables or drop leaf
dining tables. During Victorian times dining was more sociable
and because of this the dining room tables were of the large, extendable
varieties leading to vast dinner parties and the dining table became
the centre of the home. Antique
dining tables could be extended by inserting leaves via a winding
mechanism or the slightly earlier pull apart versions. Many of these
tables have lasted throughout the years and they are available to
buy through antique furniture businesses, they represent excellent
value for money as they are built in such a way that the joints
and superstructure are certain to last for centuries, at Harbour
Antiques we make sure that all the joints on our tables have been
thoroughly vetted prior to delivery and clamped as necessary, the
casters are all serviced to ensure that the table can be moved with
as much ease as possible, the winding mechanism or carcass of the
main body of the table is checked thoroughly to ensure extending
the table is a pleasurable experience and not a constant battle.
There are quite a number of Antique
Dining Tables available and they would look fantastic in either
period homes or indeed modern homes, we tend to favour the Victorian
oval dining table, circular
breakfast tables which usually are ideal for medium sized homes
where seating 6 is normal, for larger homes the extending
Victorian dining tables are more popular and we sell tables
that can seat 8, 10, 12, 14 and sometimes more. Regency
tables are generally made of superior quality timber due to
its abundance, as time progressed timber in large leafs becomes
harder to find as trees need a long period of time to grow to their
maximum girth. Having said this we have many fine examples of antique
dining tables and generally favour walnut, mahogany and rosewood
as the timber for our selection. The majority of our tables pass
through the workshop and are often traditionally french polished,
this is a very labour intensive operation and brings a tired table
back to life, we suggest purchasing a good quality surface protector
for your dining table to ensure that those inevitable spills or
accidents dont mark the surface of your table. Georgian
dining tables would never have been french polished as this
is something that became popular at the onset of Victorian pieces.
