About this work

Low chest of walnut with poplar wood interior, resting on a molded base. The corner and middle stiles carry pilasters that taper towards the bottom. Above them, in the headpiece, two consoles are always present, which form the front boards of narrow drawers, flanking two wider drawers with bronze lion masks and ring pulls. The doors have a corniced panel, with a lion mask with bronze ring pull in the center, and decorated with rosettes in the corners.
