Queen Anne Tilt-Top Tea Table

| Antique Gallery |

Tea tables in the early 18th century, during the Queen Anne period, Georgian style were simple yet elegant. Used in many ways, the tea table was used primarily for serving tea to guests and then stored when not in use. These tables, sometimes called Tip-Top and Tripod, varied in size and style but the most practical feature was having the ability to be tilted up. It was during this time period that furniture was located around the perimeter of the room and pulled out for use when needed. Tea drinking was an important social activity and round tea tables allowed the hostess of the event to pour tea and then turn the table to guests while all were seated. The perfect table to display your Apple, Pear, and Bombay tea caddies!
