The sideboard has a very solid base of rectangular shape made entirely of solid and valuable wood, very durable and elegant in its workmanship.
There are two large side doors, which can be opened by means of a lock with a special brass key in patina. In the middle of these two doors are two small upper drawers, with a round brass handle original to the period; below the drawers is another compartment that opens up, with a brass lock and a very sinuous and important rose decoration.
Above this base is a beautiful red marble top, simply wonderful. Above this rectangular base is the top, above which are two beautifully carved wooden columns. Next to these carved columns stands the actual upper structure of the cabinet. This leaves a central compartment for displaying any object or foodstuff; a rectangular mirror has been placed in the background, adding to the grandeur of the room.
Above this we see another horizontal rectangular block, created by three doors, two on the sides and a larger central one, all made of a high-quality and durable frosted and carefully worked clear glass.
The two side doors have a special woodwork: in fact, a kind of large square grid has been created out of thin wood, which adds to the eccentricity. The real decorative eccentricity is represented by a sinuous frame created by curls, with an oval woven wooden element in the centre, creating unparalleled elegance. There is a single light-coloured wooden shelf running the entire length, suitable for displaying plates and collectibles.
Above the sideboard, there is a very imposing frieze with a rigid, geometric shape, which crowns the sideboard itself.
The sideboard is suitable for important and elegant rooms at least as elegant as it is. This piece has an attribution mark,
