DescriptionCabinet (a) of dark brown rectangular stacked boxes, each layer with inset drawers and all surfaces with stacked chip carved pyramidal forms except back and top, which are carved with ornate, interlocking swirling forms. There are five drawers (b-f), noticable by handles and one hidden drawer (g) set into the space between the bottom drawer and the middle two drawers. The cabinet sits on legs formed of elongated inverted pyramids on top of upright pyramids, with an elongated pyramidal "stretcher" between them, all of which are on a single wood sheet. Some of the drawers have compartments with printed images on paper.
