The cabinet opens with a single front door composed of molded panels and fitted with wrought iron hardware. Inside, several shelves provide practical storage space. The lower section includes a drawer that was added later and is not original to the piece.

The structure is simple and robust, built from thick planks assembled using traditional techniques. The wood displays pronounced grain, numerous knots, and a warm patina developed over time—characteristic features of Savoyard mountain furniture.
