Cabinets with tiny drawers

Lyon & Turnbull's auctions continue to be worth looking through. This one (viewing is open today, Tuesday, and the sale is on the 22nd) has some lovely old furniture, mostly in reasonable, used, condition. 

There must have been thirty pieces with internal tiny drawers, mostly smaller than the ones on the walnut cabinet in the blip. Some very odd things, like a Malaysian bronze cannon, a few very big display dressers, and three mounted leopard skins. Several long case clocks, some locally made.

Went on from there to McDonald Road and back by Leith Walk. 12C high in the morning, blustery cold wind.
