John Wardle Hand Operated Cabinet  – The three large shallow drawers and four cupboard doors have very specific means of operation, sliding, folding outward and pivoting toward the centre. The tactility of the operations are perhaps the most defining characteristics of this sideboard. The various splays, slices and cambered cuts encourage differing means of hand operation.The upward inflection of the three sides of the top create an open edge to contain many objects, one of which a turned timber inset vase is incorporated within it.
