Dining rooms became common in the 1700s and banquets were either set in a hall or in a separate dining room. The dining room is decorated with popular woodland tapestry, the theme of which was inspired by woven wallpaper of the Baroque period. The wallpapers reflect the natural romanticism of the period, but also the interest of the time in gardening. In Finland, fruit trees became particularly common in the gardens of the nobility: apple, plum, cherry, cherry and even pear.

drinking glasses and drinks were set out on a side table, from which a servant brought drinks and rinsed the glasses in a glass rinsing basin for new drinks. Not everyone had their own glasses, but drinks were taken in turns. Water, brandy, wine, punch and bishoff were served. There was also sugar on the side table for those who wanted a sweeter wine.

exotic and expensive dishes such as lemons, spicy dishes and expensive wines were served at the weatherman's feast tables. Dinners could last all night and there were many different courses. In between, there was dancing and card playing. The lavish service and expensive tableware were a sign of social hierarchy, or belonging to the ruling class.
