Condition Report

This games table is presented in very good antique condition for its age. The burr walnut veneers remain sound throughout with no significant lifting or losses, displaying excellent colour and attractive aged patination. Minor surface wear consistent with regular historic use is present and adds warmth and authenticity to the piece. The marquetry inlay remains complete and intact throughout the top, base platform, and legs with no missing sections.

The fold-over mechanism operates correctly and the top sits level and firm in both the closed and open positions. The original green baize playing surface displays age-related marking and light wear entirely consistent with genuine use and age, whilst remaining fully functional. The turned base remains firm and stable with no evident repairs or replacements. All four original brass castors are present and functioning correctly, and the central urn-and-finial remains intact. An honest description from a specialist dealer with over 60 years of family experience.

Our house was built in 1820, so I have been slowly acquiring furniture from the same period. The piece is perfect & arrived very quickly too.

We purchased a table from Hawkins Antique and it is absolutely stunning and a mint condition! Delivery was very fast and the delivery team were fantastic and really went the extra mile to get the table into the house - it wasn't simple due to our narrow front door, but the guys managed to get it in, keeping the table safe along the way! Highly recommend - very happy! Made another purchase already!

We had purchased a walnut sideboard from this company. We are delighted with it and with the service. The sideboard - is in a very good condition, clean, as described and advertised. We found dealing with everyone in that company to be straight forward and helpful. I would not hesitate buying from them again! Highly recommended!!!

Bought a William Tillman table and chairs. We are absolutely thrilled with the purchase and the company was very understanding when we were having trouble with moving dates. They were extremely helpful and understanding. Items came well packed and dropped off by two nice chaps who moved everything into the house for us without any hassle at all. Absolutely no trouble in recommending Hawkins Antiques. Would give more than 5*
