The Bouillotte table originated in France in the 18th century and was named after a card game similar to poker called Bouillotte. The table was designed specifically for playing this card game, with its distinctive features such as a metal gallery encircling the top, adjustable candle holders, a felt or leather top for playing cards, and sometimes small compartments for storing gaming accessories. Bouillotte tables became popular among the French aristocracy and spread to other parts of Europe and eventually to America.
