The cabinet, by Herter Brothers, is a large, ornate piece of furniture with a gold-colored frame and red interior. The cabinet has a flat top with a decorative edge and a short shelf that runs across the top. The top shelf displays several objects, including what appears to be glassware and vases. The main body of the cabinet has two columns on either end, with multiple shelves and cabinets in the center. The columns have an open shelving unit with two shelves on the left and right; the left and right columns also have drawers at the bottom. The center has two shelves above and four doors below; the top shelf has a plate on display and the bottom shelves have various decorative objects. The cabinet stands on four legs with ornate carvings at the bottom. The background of the image is dark gray, and the floor is light gray.
