The doors all have their original locks with working key, the shelves are all original also. The base has a plinth with the original nicely turned feet beneath.

The top section is open with half round flat columns matching the base at the sides of the sections. Each section has 3 fully adjustable shelves which are all original. Nice shape cornice to the top. The back of the upper section is also solid mahogany as it is obviously on view which is a nice sign of quality.
