The first of these drawers, in the upper part, presents a projection facade, around mahogany and marked with a composition arranged in staggered.
The second and third deeper drawer include a marquetry surrounded by a composition with Greek angles. The crosspiece is hidden allowing a continuity of the patterns between the two facades.
Each drawer is equipped with two handfuls of burst with scalloped rings, original chopped mascarons, wrapped in brass input and a functional authentic lock with posterior key.
This piece of furniture is embellished with a cul-de-lamp decorated with acanthus leaves and soupters.
The uprights are nicely highlighted by three double lemon and amaranth nets with bronze falls and hooves on curved feet.
The roller sides, slightly concave, are worked in the same way taking identical geometric patterns.
This dresser is particularly interesting for these lines, its dimensional and the warm tones of its wood species.
