The incessant alternation of undulation substantiates the backbone of this wonderful and unusual piece of furniture; it is precisely the masterful quality of the carving, combined with refined cabinet-making details, such as the skilful use of thuja on the sides or in the upper part which supports the fluid linear rhythm of the walnut surfaces, which accredits the geographical area in addition to all the woods butt which are also found inside the cabinet.

The inlay technique with light wood of thuja on the walnut is a typically Venetian peculiarity.

Also significant is the consonance of these types of decoration which develop with a broad design, involving the whole front, sides and upper part of the piece of furniture with decorative methods in some respects similar to those of the chests of drawers of Lake Garda

The fact remains that this chest of drawers with a refined and constant decorative inlay turns out to be a great example of 18th century Italian cabinet-making.
