The table's adjustable arm and lightweight make it flexible in function.[2] It has been suggested that Gray originally designed the table for her sister, who ate breakfast in bed; by holding a dining tray above the bed, rather than directly on the bed, the spill of crumbs could be avoided.[3][4]

Before her death, Eileen Gray sold the design to British furniture manufacturer Aram.
