English dressing table in walnut wood, originally conceived for travel, as it has a folding lid and folding sides, as well as incised handles on the sides. It belongs to the Edwardian period. The front door features the design of a classic cup in marquetry, bordered with fruit wood fillets. It also has a drawer with scalloped bows in marquetry, and a lower shelf.
