Concealing two secret compartments
The cross-grain cornice neatly conceals a full-length hidden drawer known as a cushion drawer and two concealed secret compartments.

The sides are veneered in book-matched figured walnut and cross-banded.
This is a very beautiful and accomplished example of fantastic colour, patination and originality.
