The turned capitals are typical of English cabinetmaking in Giorgio II period. The Chinosierie lacquering is very important, thanks to the meticulous and accurate decorations. The background monochromatic lacquering is red and it has 9 layers of lacquer, one over the other, with a final thickness of 2 mm. Decorated with water-based temperas and fine brushes, the drawings show scenes of oriental life, exotic animals, flowers and arabesques, made by relief elements in pure gold leaf dating back to Ming dynasty (China, 12th-14th century). The decorations express the peculiarity and originality of the trumeau. The paintings are protected by transparent shellac established by brush and polished with sandarac ( a natural resin similar to honey dissolved in alcohol). Handlers, hinges and keys are crafted by hand, in bronze poured in casting moulds and keeping the same features of the original.
