This nomadic piece of furniture revolutionized social life at court by allowing the rigidity of large buffets to be broken, creating conversation islands anywhere in the room. Its lightweight and compact structure was designed to be moved according to needs: to place a candlestick, a cup of tea, or a bedside book.
