Each of their facade, presents in its center a plating of rosewood positioned in butterfly wings. Around, a double fillet of light wood and amaranth, alternated by geometric squares, is framed by mahogany strips with tab cutting. In the center, we find a bronze key entrance ordered from a Louis XVI knot from which a foliage crown escapes. The original lock is in working order and its key is later. The interior of the drawers is oak.
Below, a slightly cut cross is dressed in a bronze with Greco-Roman inspirations.
On each side of this medium piece of furniture, an element of wooden wooden round in mahogany is attached to the foot. This is made up of inlays of large light wood and amaranth nets, decorated in the upper part with a large bronze fall and continuing by a slightly curved foot with a bronze hoof forming lion's legs.
The sides use the same composition as the drawers on the front: rosewood veneer, light wood and amaranth nets.
This chest of drawers is summoned with a marble cherry from the Pyrenees with an openwork brass gallery with entrance on the front.
In addition to its quality and the taste brought to its manufacture, this piece of furniture delighted with its golden ornaments and its refinement. This unit rare by its shape has an ideal dimensional.
