Summary
An elaborate doll's house cabinet made from a light coloured wood. It has a central cupboard with a door which opens and a handle made from a metal nail. The door has a cut-out panel in it which has a piece of green velvet stuck inside. Attached to either side of the cupboard are three curved 'display' shelves. On top of the cupboard is a larger platform and on top of this are four posts which support a solid rectangular 'roof' which has a carved pediment at the front. There are two carved panels at either side of the back posts. The leg on the left-hand side is missing.
