The Bureau table by John Townsend is a wooden piece with a rectangular top and a short lip around the edge. The top surface is flat and smooth. The front has two columns of drawers; the left column has four drawers, while the right column has four drawers and a cabinet. The drawers have brass handles and are adorned with carved shell-like designs at the top. The legs of the table are curved and splayed outward, with a decorative molding at the bottom. The background of the image is a plain gray color.
