The top is made with an 18th century marquetry parquet element in "cubed" sycamore maple, walnut and cherry veneer. The parquet comes from the first floor apartment of the private mansion located at number 7 rue Neuve-des-Capucins in Grenoble (called rue Voltaire since 1773), purchased in January 1780 by Jean-François Hache for the considerable sum of 22,700 livres. Under the top we have glued a cartouche reproducing the mention written in ink under another element of the same parquet "made this 19 July 1782".
