Antique Pianos

Antique pianos are a passion of ours, they are the epitomy of elegance and style and even if you don't play they are such beautiful pieces of furniture, and as such are always well admired, they become the heart of a home, making a wonderful statement in any room.Our pianos are carefully chosen and have to meet strict criteria, both in looks and mechanically. Our favourite pianos other than the obvious Bechstein, Steinway, Bluthner and Bosendorf are the more affordable and highly regarded Antique Jon Broadwood Grand Pianos which often have wonderful rosewood cases , Brinsmead pianos, well respected Challen Baby Grand Pianos which are small enough for most modern day lounges, and Melodic Collard and Collard Boudoir Grand Pianos , all of these are English piano makers and have been producing beautiful pianos for many Centuries.
Each piano is put through the workshop prior to delivery to ensure that the cases are in lovely condition, often we decide to traditionally French polish the cases to really give them the "wow" factor, each piano is checked by a technician to make sure all strings and hammers are good, and every piano is tuned prior to delivery, although you will probably find it may be necessary to have them retuned after 6 weeks of delivery as each piano takes a while to settle into its new environment. Most modern grand pianos are no longer made in this Country as it is such a time consuming operation and our skilled craftsmen over here just cant compete with China and Japan which is where the majority of modern grand pianos are now produced, the cases being spray finished as opposed to lovingly hand polished.
We always have a good selection of antique piano stools which can also be found in our upholstery section Click Here

Antique Dining Tables

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.
