Originating from: Papal States The lower part is a chest of drawers with three drawers and a small one that drops down and serves as a writing desk (scarabattolo). In the upper body, the two doors open to reveal a shelved cupboard. Its mouldings are of particular value, on the sides, doors, drawers, pillars, and the beautiful cornice which gives the piece notable architectural solidity.
