The cabaret tables, very sought after, designate those having a curved top, in order to hold cups and glasses.
These tables appeared from the 17th century, but were very fashionable in the 18th century, with the appearance in particular of chocolate..
The greatest cabinetmakers, such as Carlin or RVLC, distinguished themselves with them. We find their small cabaret tables, in particular with orcelaine or lacquer tops, at Camondo.
