Writing cabinet
When the cabinet’s sloped, hinged lid is open, it serves as a writing desk. Sixteen drawers are concealed behind the doors; another sixteen line the sides of the upper section. They may have been meant to hold a collection of art or naturalia (curiosities of nature). Large portfolios and papers could be stored in the drawers of the lower section.
