The high chest of drawers by the artist is made of dark wood with a reddish tint. The chest is tall and rectangular and stands on spindly legs that have spherical feet. A stretcher bar connects the legs horizontally near the bottom. The legs are turned, featuring a bulbous middle section. The top section contains 12 drawers, arranged in four rows of three. The bottom section contains three drawers. All drawers have ornate brass handles. The edges of the top and bottom sections are decorated with moldings. The background of the image is light gray.
