Onbekend - Onbekend - Dining table (5) - Mahogany - Dining table with 4 chairs.

Dutch mahogany column table (also called a “gueridon” or a display/ornamental table), style transitioning from late Empire/early Biedermeier into Louis Philippe, ca. 1840–1870.

Late Empire or Early Biedermeier is referenced.
The table aligns with the Biedermeier period through the following elements:

- Unscathed, tightly veneered top
- Diameter: 100 cm
- The round shape: The large, round central table was the focal point in the Biedermeier living room. People sat around it for handicrafts, tea, and intimate conversations.
- Heavy central column: The sturdy, often octagonal or round central leg is very typical for Dutch Biedermeier tables.
- Robust mahogany wood: The use of warm, richly figured mahogany veneer was, at the time, the absolute fashion. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
- The influence of Empire:
The strong, detailed claw feet beneath the top and the somewhat monumental form are directly derived from the French Empire style. Whereas later Biedermeier often became somewhat plainer and sleeker, this type of furniture still retains the dignified, classical allure of the early 19th-century interior.
