The desk stands on four turned legs, with a pierced tracery connecting them. The legs flank a shelf, which is open to the front and is divided into two parts. There are two drawers above the shelf. The drawer panels and the tracery are carved with Hungarian motifs of stylized flowers, painted in polychrome colours. The slanted folding plate opens at the top.
