Table d'architecte à la Tronchin d'époque Louis XVI en acajou et placage d'acajou, un tiroir en ceinture et deux tirettes, piéds fuselés
La table à la tronchin est une table XVIIIème, apparue sous le règne de Louis XVI. Elle tire son nom d'un médecin genevois Théodore Tronchin (1709-1781) qui publie à l’époque des travaux sur les maladies osseuses liées à la mauvaise position que l’on adopte à sa table de travail et sur les avantages qu’il y aurait à créer une table à pupitre inclinable qui permettrait de garder le dos bien droit et d’éviter ainsi toute déformation ou douleur, que l’on travaille assis ou debout. L'innovation de cette table XVIIIème vient d'un mécanisme dissimulé dans l'épaisseur de la ceinture et qui permet d'éléver le plateau à la hauteur désirée.

Ainsi, le plateau de cette table qui pouvait être plein ou muni d'un pupitre gainé de cuir, est inclinable à l'angle voulu grâce à un pupitre à crans, et rehaussable grâce à un jeux de deux ou quatre crémaillères dissimulés à l’intérieur des pieds .

Louis XVI period Tronchin architect's table in mahogany and mahogany veneer, a belt drawer and two pulls, tapered legs
The tronchin table is an 18th century table, which appeared during the reign of Louis XVI. It takes its name from a Genevan doctor Théodore Tronchin (1709-1781) who published at the time works on bone diseases linked to the bad position that one adopts at his work table and on the advantages it there would be to create a table with tilting desk which would keep the back straight and thus avoid any deformation or pain, whether working sitting or standing. The innovation of this 18th century table comes from a mechanism hidden in the thickness of the belt and which allows the tray to be raised to the desired height.

Thus, the table top which could be full or fitted with a leather-wrapped desk, can be tilted to the desired angle thanks to a notched desk, and can be raised thanks to a set of two or four racks concealed in the inside of the feet.
