The piece reflects the strict geometric language of early Viennese modernism, closely related to the work of Josef Hoffmann and his circle.

Executed in ebonized oak with metal and glass elements, the table features a removable top tray and hinged side panels designed to function as practical extensions (Ablagen). This example retains three of the original framed glass panels; one is missing its metal support, and a fourth panel is no longer present.

The table stands on four cylindrical legs with original castors and maintains its original finish, showing a natural patina and visible wear consistent with age and use.

A characteristic and functional piece of Vienna Secession design, combining architectural clarity with practical versatility. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
