This dresser is unusual in being made with a plain back board to the top, rather than shelves. It has a decoratively pierced frieze, of a design which was common to high status oak dressers from Shropshire and Staffordshire during the second half of the 18th and into the 19th centuries. The dresser also has the decorative refinement of mahogany cross-banding around the edge of the top, the drawer fronts (where it is stepped around the escutcheon plates,) on the applied end panels and unusually on the front legs which are tapered on the outer and inside faces.
