The lower section includes a larger drawer, which boasts a shaped apron to the drawer front. All drawers run smoothly and close flush to the frame, featuring their original turned knobs. The chest is raised on turned tapering legs. These bedsides boast classic Art Deco styling throughout; this is visible in the rounded corners and clean lines and stepped design.

The drawers close flush to the frame and retain their original knobs. The chest is well-constructed, solid in joint and ready to use.
