The history of tea tables dates back to the middle of the 18th century. During this time period, tea time was a daily activity carried out by the elite circles of society as a means of social gathering. The tables were designed to be much taller than what would become the modern-day coffee table to afford easy reach and access to the tea to avoid any awkward mishaps or inconveniences to guests partaking in the ritual of tea time. Many were created to feature cabinets for holding glassware, drinks, and other necessities. Others were designed to be more decorative in nature with a simple table base design. While the tradition of taking afternoon tea may be a social standard of the past, a beautiful antique tea table can bring beauty and warmth to any area of today's modern home. They are especially useful in areas with limited space due to their smaller sizes.
At Laurel Crown, we are honored to create reproductions of the most cherished styles of the past. For the last 25 years, we have been committed to producing replicas of high standards while delivering outstanding customer service.
