The coffee table in the living room of The Burrow
The Weasley family had a coffee table in the living room of their home, The Burrow, in Ottery St Catchpole, England.[1] It was made in 1976 and inlaid with tiles hand-painted with a brown geometric design by Ox-Art.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
- The coffee table featured in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 is one of a line of tile-inlaid tables (which included dining tables, coffee tables, and end tables) produced by the Danish furniture company Trioh in the 1970s.[2][3][4] The tiles on this line of tables were typically signed "Ox-Art" and dated with the year of manufacture.[2][3][4]
- The coffee table was acquired by a collector in Pembrokeshire soon after its use in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1. This person later sold the table to Brita Rogers, who in turn offered it for sale at an antiques fair in Carmarthen, Wales in 2015.[5]
