ABSTRACT:
An improved table design, providing a simple, multiple terraced, multiple configuration, and fully collapsible display by means of simple mechanical adjustments to the table. The entire surface of the table is comprised of tabletops nested within tabletops, forming a contiguous unified horizontal tabletop surface. A means is provided for lifting each nested tabletop to a higher elevation, thus creating a terrace above the surface of the respective surrounding tabletop. Said means of lifting said nested tabletops having minimal downward protrusion from the horizontal plane of the bottom of the primary tabletop, whereby said table can be manufactured as a fully portable table if desired. Combinations of said nested tabletops and elevated tabletops at variable heights allow the user to create a multitude of possible configurations. An optional magnetically attractive material on, in, or near the vertical edge of each tabletop facilitates easy decoration of the table with magnetic items.
