In its standard position, it serves as a dining table for up to six people; when adjusted, the structure transforms into a low tea table, revealing an entirely different silhouette.
The design features movable legs that slide toward the center, allowing the tabletop to rest in an alternate position. Crafted entirely in Brazilian rosewood (jacarandá), the piece exemplifies Eisler’s architectural approach to furniture, blending mechanical intelligence with refined craftsmanship.
