What Are Antique and Classic Tables?

Antique and classic tables are pieces of furniture that are often more than one hundred years old and originate from various historical periods. They are characterized by their craftsmanship, quality materials, and unique designs. These tables are often handmade, meaning that each piece is unique and possesses its own charm.
 

The Antique and Classic Tables in Our Collection

We offer a large selection of tables in antique, classic, and English styles. Most of the tables in our collection are antique and pre-owned, and have been fully restored by us, giving them a second life.

For many years, we have specialized in classic and antique furniture and offer a wide variety of tables, including dining tables, conference tables, coffee tables, console tables, side tables, and writing tables in antique, classic, and English styles.
 

Dining Tables

Dining tables are often large and robust, designed to accommodate multiple people. They are ideal for hosting dinners and family gatherings and add a sense of elegance and history to the dining room. Many antique and classic dining tables feature intricate details and fine veneers, making them true eye-catchers.

Conference Tables

A conference table is often larger and more luxuriously finished than a dining table. Antique and classic conference tables are designed for office use and are highly practical for meetings.

A conference table adds a unique focal point to your office while conveying luxury and sophistication. These tables are often enhanced with details such as marquetry or a leather top and are crafted from premium, durable wood species.

Coffee Tables

Coffee tables are generally smaller and designed for placement in the living room. They are ideal for holding drinks, books, and decorative objects. Antique coffee tables range from simple rustic designs to more refined and highly detailed pieces.

Their versatility makes them a wonderful addition to a variety of interior styles, from traditional to contemporary.

Side Tables

Side tables can be placed in different rooms throughout the home and provide additional space for lighting, decoration, or even storage.

Classic and antique side tables are highly versatile and fit seamlessly into both traditional and modern interiors. Made from durable wood species and available in various colors and finishes, there is always a side table in our collection that can elevate your interior to the next level.

Console Tables

Console tables are wall tables designed to be placed against a wall. They are an excellent alternative to a sideboard and generally take up less visual space within a room.

A console table is ideal for areas where space is limited. They are often placed near hallways or staircases and are particularly suitable for entrance halls. Classic and antique console tables are characterized by brass or bronze hardware combined with luxurious materials such as veneers, hardwoods, marquetry, and other decorative details.

Writing Tables

Writing tables have a wide range of applications and are often similar in size to conference or dining tables. They are distinguished by drawers integrated into the tabletop, making them ideal if you are looking for a large conference table or dining table with storage space, or a spacious desk where multiple people can work together.

Antique and classic writing tables are crafted from premium wood species and are often fitted with leather writing surfaces available in a variety of colors.

Globe Wernicke Tables

Our collection also includes a large selection of tables from the Globe Wernicke brand. Globe Wernicke dining and conference tables are made from solid wood and feature beautiful wood veneers arranged in elegant patterns.

These tables are masterpieces of craftsmanship and stunning focal points for both offices and homes.

Advantages of Antique and Classic Tables in Your Interior

Adding an antique or classic table to your interior offers numerous advantages. Every table has its own unique character and appearance. In addition, these tables are exceptionally durable and can easily last a lifetime.

Another advantage is their versatility. From dining tables and coffee tables to side tables and writing tables, our collection offers a wide variety of styles and designs. This makes it easy to find a table that matches your specific taste and interior.

Furthermore, our antique and classic tables can be seamlessly integrated into both traditional and modern interiors, making them a versatile option for any home. The unique charm and history that each antique table carries can greatly enrich a space.
 

Characteristics of an Antique or Classic Table

Antique and classic tables can be recognized by their craftsmanship. They are often handmade, which is evident in their fine details and finishing.

Look for signs of handcraftsmanship such as irregularities in carvings, hand-cut joints, and the quality of the wood used. These features distinguish antique tables from modern furniture, which is often mass-produced by machines.

Another important aspect is the patina, the natural aging of the wood. Patina gives antique and classic tables their unique character and serves as a sign of authenticity.

Pay attention to discoloration, scratches, and other signs of wear that have developed over the years. These imperfections contribute to the charm and story of the table. It is important to understand that perfect condition is not necessarily better; signs of use and age are often valuable additions that make a table truly unique.

All antique and classic tables in our collection are carefully inspected and restored where possible, ensuring that they remain in excellent condition.

Maintenance and Care of Antique and Classic Tables

Maintaining and caring for antique and classic tables is essential to preserve their beauty and functionality.

One of the most important aspects of maintenance is regular cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to gently remove dust and dirt. Avoid aggressive cleaning agents or abrasive products, as these may damage the finish and the wood.

In addition to cleaning, it is important to protect the table from extreme temperatures and humidity. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or near heat sources such as radiators or fireplaces, as this can dry out the wood and cause cracking.

It is also important to maintain a stable humidity level in the room to prevent the wood from expanding or shrinking. If the wood becomes dry, furniture wax is often the best treatment.

Regular maintenance, such as waxing or polishing the table, can help preserve the finish and enhance the wood’s natural shine. Use a high-quality furniture wax or oil to nourish and protect the wood.

Apply a thin layer with a soft cloth and rub it gently in the direction of the grain. Allow the product to absorb for several minutes before buffing it with a clean, dry cloth. By following these simple steps, you can extend the lifespan of your antique table and keep it looking beautiful for years to come.
 

Combining Antique Tables with Modern Interiors

Combining antique or classic tables with modern interiors can create a stunning overall look. The mix of old and new can make a space dynamic and vibrant. By blending different styles, you can create a truly remarkable interior.

One effective way to integrate antique and classic tables into a modern setting is by using neutral colors and minimalist designs throughout the rest of the room. This ensures that the antique or classic table becomes the focal point.

Modern furniture with clean lines and simple shapes can provide a striking contrast to the detailed and often ornate designs of the antique and classic tables in our extensive collection.

You can also use accessories and decorative elements to soften the transition between old and new. Consider modern lamps, artwork, or textiles that reflect colors or stylistic elements found in the antique table.

This helps create a cohesive design where different styles complement one another rather than compete. By carefully selecting and experimenting with different combinations, you can create a unique and stylish space that feels both nostalgic and contemporary.
