The sculpturally shaped top with 5 circular inlaid Abalone details & 2 diamond shaped Abalone inlays all united by beautiful Ebony string inlays with 14 further Abalone inlaid diamonds 7 to each door & Ebony string inlay & Ebonised detailing to the outer edge of each door & to the inner glazing bars & all the glass has a wonderful Green tinge to it & fully adjustable shelves inside. The sides in the middle also have 4 more Abalone inlaid diamonds in Ebony Squares, 2 to each side. The bottom section breaks forward with 2 side by side slides for choosing your books each has an ivory handle & is flanked with Abalone diamonds set into Ebony squares & corresponding Abalone inlays to the very centre & to each end side of each slide. The cupboard doors below with further Ebony string inlays around each of the 4 panels per door & around each door edge. This is certainly an important historic piece to be signed by Ambrose himself.
