Description:
Above a drawer decorated with a common ornament, being pulled by two iron knobs in the form of a latch, are two leaves, each decorated with two winged sirens connected by an ove ornament with a cross in the middle. These two leaves are separated by a solid part on which is carved the bust of a woman ending in a winding. The lower part of the cabinet, empty, consists of two double caryatids which, leaning against, & posing on lion's feet, are, as well as the sirens of the upper part, partly gilded
