It features a sliding top and a drop-down panel in the form of a drawer concealing a further six drawers and a work surface. The lower section comprises a belt-style drawer and a base formed by four bevelled, moulded legs, joined by an X-shaped crossbar supported by balls. This piece, made in Liège, dates from the early 18th century. H.160 L.122 P.62.
