David Runkan designed this gaming table to suit the intimate interiors of late 18th century aristocratic Europe. The table's small size and multiple configurations made it enormously convenient for entertaining guests. A rear leg swings out to support the table as its leaves are unfolded. A hidden drawer allows playing cards or personal items to be stored. An adjustable arm supports the unfolding leaves, providing a level plane for each configuration. Opening the first set of leaves reveals a felt surface for card games. The second configuration features a game board for chests or checkers. Another leaf transforms the table into a desk with a leather riding service. This configuration also offers the option of a bookrest. A hidden latch releases a spring-driven backgammon board to the top of the riding service. Game pieces can be stored in compartments with sliding lids. The table is easily folded back to its original small size. The legs can be unscrewed, making the table easy to pack and move. David Runkan's sophisticated portable designs enabled people to travel with luxury and refinement.
