It opens on the front with a flap decorated with characters, Japanese under a canopy, foliage and chimeras.
The flap reveals 8 drawers, seven on the sides and the top, the lower row constituting a single drawer. A door in the center reveals two small drawers hiding a secret drawer. The inner face of the flap, the sides and the top are in ebony veneer and ivory fillet inlays, all forming rectangles.
The drawer handles are lion muzzles biting two dolphins. The carrying handles are lion muzzles biting volutes coming out of a cornucopia supporting a lion's head. It rests on four small ball feet.
Very good general condition. A crack on the top, a very small piece of bronze is missing on a corner fitting. See photos.
