The sides have multiple raised panels; the four raised panel doors feature a large central carved rosette with carved stylized fans in the corners, also of note is a shapely incised line that cuts between the fans and the rosette. The upper and lower interiors are essentially open with each having a removable shelf. There are two small drawers below the doors. This press has beautiful color and patina with the bees wax finish providing a pleasant sheen.
