This table conforms to the type described by Thomas Chippendale in his Director as a breakfast table. They are often referred to as supper tables in the antiques trade in order to differentiate them from tilt top dining tables of small size which are also known as breakfast tables-as is often the case with furniture, there is no one description that is universally used to describe a type of piece. What differentiates our piece and others like it from the far more common Pembroke tables is the addition of a cupboard undertier section.

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as WICK ANTIQUES LIMITED, number 05162431. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Not yet checked.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
Not established. Many companies file a statement rather than naming a controlling shareholder.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
