Low Square Table with Drawers

product code: ATC-TA-1509171
£1,465.00
D85 x H50 x W85 x cm

Shanxi, circa 1800

This square shaped table is made from elm and dates from the beginning of the nineteenth century. Traces of the original dark lacquer are still intact, but this has largely worn down to the paler wood colour underneath, revealing the wide grain of the elm. The hardware between the upper drawers is old, once used to secure the drawers in place. The two lower drawers are actually new additions, made using the old fixed panels to provide extra storage space. When the table was produced the lower space inside the table would have provided a secure area for holding valuables, accessible only by removing the drawers above. Below the drawers is a carved apron, fitted above legs that end in horse hoof shaped feet.

Delivery

Please note that we are continuing to arrange deliveries of both small accessories and furniture during this difficult period, so your online order will be dispatched as usual. We are working with our delivery partners to ensure that all of our customers can safely receive orders from us. In most cases we will be able to arrange delivery within our normal time scales (shown below) but please bear with us at there may inevitably be some delays at this difficult time.

Note that some of our furniture delivery teams are currently unable to offer their usual service of positioning furniture in your room of choice and unpacking it. Instead they will place your furniture inside your front door or in a hallway. They will not require a signature but may photograph the items as proof of delivery. They can also provide a 'contactless' delivery as an alternative if you prefer, leaving your items outside.

Please see more details here.

Aftercare

Lacquered furniture should need little cleaning other than the regular use of a dry, soft cloth or duster. To remove any stains, use a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid the use of too much water as this will affect the surface. Frequent waxing should not be needed but can be carried out every couple of months using a good quality natural beeswax. Do not use the cheaper silicone furniture sprays as these may affect the finish. Never use any abrasive cleaning products or chemicals.

Products in a natural finish can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. Use a natural beeswax every few months to protect and nourish the wood.

Do not place hot or wet items directly onto the product surface as this can mark the finish. Clean any spills as soon as possible.

Avoid placing your furniture near a radiator or other heat source as this can lead to the wood drying out and shrinking, causing cracks or splitting. Ideally, leave at least a metre between your furniture and any heat source. Avoid also placing your furniture in strong, direct sunlight as the colour may fade over time.
