The case consists of five drawers of various size. The top two rectangular drawers are of equal height and width. Two of the squared bottom drawers are equal height and width. The central bottom drawer is rectangular and situated between the square bottom drawers. The drawers have molded edges. Each drawer has a bat-wing bail pull.    The front apron of the case has coved cutouts and ball-and-pawn-shaped drop finials. The case sits on four cabriole legs with pad feet.    Signed by both makers on the backboard, in black paint: [Scottow W Randle]. The brasses are not original, but may date to the nineteenth or early twentieth centuries. Originally japanned, the case has been stripped of most of its paint, but traces of the salmon-colored base for the tortoise-shell coloring and japanning remain."},{"label":"Date Digitized","value":"7/17/2018"},{"label":"Marks, Signatures, and Inscriptions","value":"Signed by both makers on backboard, in black paint: [Scottow W Randle]."},{"label":"Materials","value":"Maple; Pine; Paint"},{"label":"Style","value":["Queen Anne"]},{"label":"Basis of Date","value":"Date range of 1725-1735 provided by Bernard & S.
