The mirror is supported either side by curved supports, which are topped by turned finials. The mirror angle can be adjusted to suit your requirements.

The stepped design comprises two smaller drawers above four graduated drawers. Below the sunken well is a further hidden drawer. All drawers are working, close flush to the frame, retain their original knobs and feature hand dovetail construction. Below the central secret drawer is a panelled backboard. The dressing table boasts ebonised detailing throughout, present in the finials, mouldings and cock beading on the drawers. The dressing table stands on the original plinths. Vertical supports secure the rear of the dressing table.
