The top writing slope has an open brass gallery and a central piece of black leather with gold leaf detail. The top is hinged, revealing four drawers (the bottom two are fake) and it has a lock mechanism and key (probably replaced at a later date).
The base consists of four drawers accessible from the right side; with four false drawer fronts at the left. The front is supported by two spiral barley-twist legs. The desk sits on brass casters.
