Summary
A wooden, doll's house size chest of drawers, varnished in dark brown. The chest has a piece of moulding down each side of the front and a (possibly transfer-printed) gold-coloured design and border on the top. There are four drawers decorated at the front with a (possibly transfer-printed) gold-coloured pattern and a round metal knob in the centre. There is a very shallow one at the top and three deeper ones below. Two of these are identical, but the bottom one clearly does not belong to this piece of furniture as it has a plain front and is narrower. Total number of items is 5.
