No. WWF 101-46-4 / Das Interieur, 1903, p. 5 Additional Information: This coffee table with a marble top, stylistically inspired by the designs of Prof. Josef Hoffmann, embodies the strictly reduced formal language of Viennese Modernism around 1905. The table's clear lines and emphasis on functionality are characteristic of the Wiener Werkstätte's design ethos. The material combination of ebonized and limed oak with a marble top reflects the aesthetic values prized during this era. Limed oak, with its bright, high-contrast grain, was a favored design element, merging elegance with natural beauty. The table recalls furniture from the apartment of Dr. Hermann Wittgenstein (Vienna, Salesianergasse 7, circa 1906) or Dr. Spitzer's residence around 1903, demonstrating a clear stylistic kinship with the works of Josef Hoffmann and the Wiener Werkstätte. This piece is designed in the style of the selected designer and/or manufacturer
