Originating from early 19th-century Austria, the table embodies the period ideal of bourgeois elegance, clean lines, and functionality. The primary material is refined walnut veneer, with the grain masterfully arranged on the circular top to create a decorative starburst pattern.

A notable structural feature is the tilt-top mechanism, which was highly popular during its time for saving space in the salon and remains fully functional today. The table has undergone professional restoration, during which the original wood polish was sensitively revived, highlighting the depth and golden reflections of the walnut wood. Despite its delicate appearance, the table boasts a stable and firm construction. This is an authentic collectors piece carrying the signature style of the Viennese aristocratic workshop, ready to serve as the centerpiece of any classic interior.
