Graceful curving ogee arch aprons below each drawer, also with ebony cockbeading to the bottom edge. Turned front legs joined to the the straight rear stiles with a potboard display shelf. With a good moulded edge to the shelf and raised on the original shaped bracket feet at the front and sides. Oak sides to the rack and base.
