Featuring a tailored neoclassical architecture, it boasts cornerposts with rectilinear plinth blocks at the base, and a scrolled corbel towards the top seeming to support the upper drawer tier. The upper drawer is unadorned other than the sheer natural beauty of the walnut face, while the three larger lower drawers are also sheathed in walnut and feature intricately cast brass ring pulls and key guards. To top it off a luxurious black marble slab has been placed, providing elegant and carefree service to last for generations!
