Antique Bobbin Side Table

Bobbin furniture first appeared in the late 17th century across the US, UK, and the Netherlands. The turned legs — shaped to echo a wooden spool — give these pieces their timeless, playful character. More than a century later, the design still balances traditional craftsmanship with a modern sensibility.

Each table is over 100 years old, handcrafted, and entirely unique. No two are the same. Variations in tone, patina, or silhouette, along with the subtle signs of age — a gentle wobble, a small dent, a faded mark — are all part of their enduring charm. Every piece is individually sourced, carefully cleaned, and restored with respect for its story.

Thanks to their compact size and distinctive silhouette, bobbin tables work beautifully in many settings:
– Beside the sofa with a stack of books and a cup of tea.
– In the hallway as a place to drop your keys.
– As a characterful bedside table.
– Or as a decorative accent wherever warmth and texture are needed.

Each piece is available in its original wood and patina, or can be hand-painted in a bespoke colour to suit your interior. (A small additional fee applies — examples can be found in our other listings.)
