This is a photograph of a wooden cabinet. The cabinet is oval in shape with finely detailed ribbed woodwork on its front facade. It is supported by four elegantly turned legs with small brass castor wheels. The cabinet has a pair of small drawers at the front, each fitted with a simple brass knob, and a small keyhole for access. The craftsmanship reflects an era of classic furniture design. The background is plain.
