The Historical Significance of George II-Style Furniture
Irish George II-style tables hold a prestigious place in the history of Georgian furniture, renowned for their exceptional craftsmanship, ornate carvings, and use of the finest hardwoods. These tables were crafted during the reign of King George II (1727–1760), a period marked by an emphasis on elegant proportions and classical influences.
One of the defining features of George II mahogany side tables is the selection of premium woods such as mahogany, oak, and walnut. Mahogany, in particular, was highly prized for its durability, rich coloring, and distinctive grain patterns. This side table showcases the rich hues and hand-carved details that exemplify the artistry of the era.
Carvings on Irish George II-style tables often include acanthus leaves, shells, floral swags, and mask motifs, drawing inspiration from classical architecture. These intricate designs lend the furniture an ornate appearance while maintaining a refined, harmonious aesthetic.
Types of Irish George II-Style Tables

1. Pembroke Tables
Pembroke tables are celebrated for their space-saving functionality. Designed with a rectangular top, rounded corners, and drop leaves, these tables feature tapered legs and drawer storage, offering both practicality and elegance.
2. Console Tables
Designed to sit against a wall or behind a sofa, console tables in the George II style often feature narrow, rectangular tops with ornate carvings. They are ideal for displaying decorative objects, such as sculptures, vases, or fine books, and add an air of sophistication to any room.
3. Side Tables and Dining Tables
George II-style side tables, like this finely carved example, were crafted to be prominent centerpieces in formal interiors. Their cabriole legs and intricate shell motifs reflect the opulence of the era. Dining tables were typically custom-made to showcase exceptional craftsmanship and luxurious design.

Cancellations and Returns
Last updated: 24th March 2025
We want everybody’s Vinterior experience to be seamless, so both buyers and sellers can fall in love with pre-loved. We designed our Terms of sale to treat everybody fairly.
However, sometimes things don’t go exactly to plan, and you may need to cancel or return an order.
To prevent this, we encourage you to check listings, photos and descriptions carefully before you buy. If you aren’t sure about a piece’s condition, size, provenance or shipping, just ask; click Contact seller to get in touch. Always contact your seller first if you have any queries, at any point in your purchase.
Our buyers receive the same protection when buying from all our sellers, both professional and verified.
Can I cancel an order?
There are many reasons why you might need to cancel an order, and you'll often be entitled to a refund. To cancel an order, click Create cancellation on the order page.
If you cancel your order before it has been dispatched, you will receive a full refund - including delivery costs. However, if your item has been shipped, delivery costs will not be included in your refund.
Please note: orders of bespoke, personalised or made-to-order pieces cannot be cancelled.
Can I return an order?
We understand that sometimes a piece isn’t the perfect fit. So if you no longer want your order, our returns process will ensure it finds a new home fast.
The Vinterior Guarantee included with your purchase entitles you to 14-day returns - allowing you to return any item within 14 days of the delivery date (except in specific circumstances, detailed below).
You can return your order if...
It isn't what you expected
If what arrives isn’t what you ordered, you can open a return. Just send us some photo evidence that the listing was inaccurate, misleading or misrepresented your purchased piece, and you’ll receive a refund.
You change your mind
If you don’t feel a piece is right for your space, you can return it. Once you request a change of mind return, you’ll be responsible for shipping the piece back to your seller as soon as possible. Delivery costs are non-refundable.
It's damaged in transit
In the rare event that an item arrives damaged or defective, you have a full 30 days from the date of delivery to return it for a full refund.
If your purchase arrives broken, always let us know. If Proovia delivered the piece, we can raise an insurance claim on the seller’s behalf. Or, the seller can raise a claim with their chosen courier.
What can't I return?
Just as there are some orders you can’t cancel, there are some you cant return, too. Personalised, bespoke or made-to-order pieces are non-returnable, and non-refundable. Sellers may also reject your return if the item has been altered in any way.
Please note: pieces on our site are pre-loved, not new. They may show some wear and tear; this is not sufficient grounds for a refund, unless the seller has misrepresented the item’s condition.
Lastly, neither Vinterior nor our sellers are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
I'm eligible for a return. Now what?
To initiate a return, log into your Vinterior account, then go to the relevant order page and click Create a return. In the return request, be sure to include all the details: the reason for your return, an in-depth description, and photos of any issues or damage.
How will I receive my refund?
Once the seller confirms they’ve received the item (in the same condition it was sent), we will send your refund to your original payment method.
All items are inspected on return. If the seller receives the return with damage they don’t recognise, we will not be able to process your refund and the seller may need to send the piece back to you. You will be required to cover these delivery costs.
