Overall of an even mid golden brown tone, an old filled separation in the top panels which looks to be part of the manufacture but maybe later infill, also runs down the joints of the right hand side of the top, further infilled old splits, knocks and dents commensurate with age with a flathead screw showing in the back right corner, the handles look to be later additions, and feet cut down from a more pronounced scroll, fitted with old locks but no key.
