The cabinet has a tall, simple design with a moulded cornice and plinth.

The doors are fitted with decorative brass turn handles and original-style brass hinges.
Inside, the cabinet is fitted with a mirrored back and a series of adjustable glass shelves, supported on timber runners running up each side. This would originally have allowed the shelf heights to be altered depending on the goods being displayed.
The cabinets generous height and narrow proportions make it particularly useful for displaying jewellery, accessories, ceramics, silverware or other smaller objects.
The front glazing is currently missing. The interior also has later LED lighting fitted for additional illumination.
The glass shelves are original and have scratches.
