ActFurniture LTD was founded in early 2019 by a young entrepreneur with a passion for antique and vintage furniture. What initially began as a hobby and a small additional source of income quickly developed into a successful full-time business.
With the guidance of an experienced mentor with over 65 years in the antiques trade, combined with a fresh and ambitious approach, ActFurniture has continued to grow year after year.
Today, we have sold over 5,000 pieces to customers across the UK, as well as supplying a growing number of pieces internationally. What started as a small venture has developed into an established business built around carefully selected furniture, reliable service and a strong commitment to providing every customer with the best possible experience from purchase through to delivery.

Description
Antique 19th century Victorian Canterbury in rosewood, an exceptional example of quality Victorian craftsmanship, beautifully made and of a very high standard.
Elegant in both design and proportion, this impressive piece was created to provide stylish storage for magazines, newspapers and correspondence while serving as a decorative feature in its own right.
The upper section is arranged with multiple open compartments, offering generous space for magazines, letters or newspapers. Beneath is a useful drawer retaining its original knob handle, providing additional concealed storage. The Canterbury stands on finely turned legs fitted with its original brass castors, allowing it to be moved with ease while preserving its authentic period character.
Crafted from beautifully figured rosewood, the timber displays stunning natural grain and a deep, rich colour throughout. Intricately carved with a high level of attention to detail, every aspect of the piece reflects the skill of the cabinet maker. Its elegant proportions, exceptional quality and original features make it a particularly desirable and increasingly rare find.
Presented in good condition, this superb Victorian Canterbury combines practicality with outstanding decorative appeal.
A truly refined piece of antique furniture, it would make a distinguished addition to a living room, study or library and is certain to be admired for many years to come.
