More About This Item:
Equal parts charming and practical, this oval tilt-top side table captures the understated elegance of early American design. Attributed to Hitchcock, a name long associated with the artistry of 19th-century furniture makers, this piece reflects the form and function prized in colonial and Federalist interiors.

This oval table features a rich mahogany-toned finish with visible wood grain, gracefully supported by a turned pedestal and tripod base with gentle Queen Anne-style cabriole legs. What sets it apart, though, is the tilt-top mechanism—allowing the tabletop to fold upright when not in use, making it easy to stow or display as a sculptural accent.

Whether used as a tea table in a sun-drenched corner, a lamp table in a reading nook, or a catch-all in a traditional entryway, this Hitchcock tilt-top table adds period-authentic flair with everyday utility.

Perfectly at home in Colonial Revival, Early American, or classic farmhouse spaces, this wood occasional table is also an ideal candidate for historically inspired interiors or antique-rich vignettes. Its slender silhouette and tilting functionality make it an excellent choice for rooms where space and elegance must work hand-in-hand.

Brand Legacy:
Founded in Connecticut in the early 19th century by Lambert Hitchcock, the Hitchcock Chair Company was renowned for pioneering affordable yet beautifully handcrafted furniture for the American household. Their signature styles—often featuring stenciled motifs, graceful forms, and early Federal silhouettes—became staples in homes from New England to the Midwest. While this table lacks the company's hallmark stenciling, its structure and design are unmistakably Hitchcock: rooted in tradition, designed with care. See less
