It has 2 main drawers, 4 small upper drawers, one small central cupboard with hidden storage and ormolu style decoration with white knobs on the small drawers. The chest pf drawers desk has a wealth of carved detailing on the base with brass ring pulls and provides both excellent storage and a writing desk with the drop down front lid. The back is plain wood and the chiffonier will be re-polished by our specialist polisher prior to shipping. We aim to leave some of the 'life' that the piece has acquired when re-polishing as otherwise it loses its personality. The item will be ready to ship approximate 2 weeks after purchase following the re-polish. Please note the locks are for show only and are not guaranteed to work. All in all a very special piece from our private collection. It is on its way from sweden as we speak so there may be a slight delay in shipping times until it arrives in UK
