the sculptural four-column base with cross stretcher reflects late bentwood production transitioning from vienna secession to early art deco. The black lacquered finish is consistent with central european furniture of the period.

the circular top is fitted with a smoked glass plate; the underlying wooden top has been replaced at a later stage.

a partially preserved, largely illegible paper label remains beneath. The form and construction are characteristic of early 20th-century viennese bentwood furniture.

provenance: acquired together with a documented set of gustav siegel model no. 714 armchairs for jacob & josef kohn and a rare matching square vienna secession bentwood table from the same private viennese household. The chairs and square table are available separately in my other pamono listings. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
