The decoration flows seamlessly: stylized flowers, leaves, and scrolls intertwine in a regular rhythm, creating a natural transition between the top and the legs. The legs, also inlaid, extend the decorative movement down to the floor; their elegant curves and luminous inlays give the console an airy appearance despite the richness of its ornamentation.

When the table opens, the piece transforms without losing its prestige: the top unfolds to reveal a new, precisely stretched green felt, offering an impeccable playing surface. This felt is bordered by a leather trim, punctuated with a gold vignette that acts as a discreet signature, reminding us that the table's playful function is set within a framework of absolute refinement. The whole piece then transforms into a complete games table, where the elegance of the furniture complements every movement.
