About the Item

Antiques of London A beautifully restored early Victorian library writing table, showcasing the refined craftsmanship and graceful proportions characteristic of the period. This distinguished piece has been sensitively brought back to life, preserving its historic charm while enhancing its natural beauty and functionality. The table features a generously sized top, perfect for writing, reading, or displaying treasured objects. Its surface has been carefully refinished, revealing the warmth and depth of the wood grain, and treated with traditional techniques to achieve a rich, subtle sheen. The restoration respects the integrity of the piece, showcasing its age and character without compromising its elegance. The tabletop has been completely refinished using the authentic 19th-century method of hand-applied French polish—a labour-intensive process that builds up layer upon layer of shellac, applied with a polishing pad in flowing, circular motions. This technique creates an exceptionally deep, glass-like lustre that enhances the natural colour and fine grain of the timber. The result is a surface with remarkable warmth, clarity, and richness, impossible to replicate with modern finishes. Classic Victorian elements can be seen in the finely turned legs, balanced silhouette, and attention to detail. The table stands solid and confident, offering both decorative presence and practical use—ideal for a library, study, hallway, or living space. A rare and timeless example of early Victorian craftsmanship, restored to a high standard and ready to be enjoyed for generations to come.
