This dining table with a tilt-top surface is a brilliant example of Austrian furniture making from the early 19th-century Biedermeier period. It is a piece that combines practical ingenuity with aesthetic refinement—the tilt-top mechanism allowed for flexible use of space in bourgeois salons, while its execution represents the pinnacle of craftsmanship of its time.

The table has undergone precise restoration, during which the original wood polish was sensitively refreshed. The dominant feature is the walnut veneer with an absolutely masterful grain match, where the woods natural pattern creates fascinating symmetrical designs. This detail testifies to the extraordinary skill of the periods master veneerers, who were able to elevate the natural structure of wood into a work of art. The robust yet elegant base ensures stability and underscores the architectural purity of the entire piece.
