Description
This is an original, vintage cabinet that is ‘sold as seen’. It is in overall good – very good, used condition. We have thoroughly cleaned it and applied a natural beeswax polish to the exterior surfaces but have otherwise left the original finish well alone. Unlock the tambour front and it immediately drops down (we recommend doing this with care so it doesn’t catch you out!), cleverly rolling back inside the cabinet to reveal the drawers inside. To close the piece, simply pull up the tambour front and lock in place. There are nine drawers in total, all beautifully made in solid oak and in clean, tidy order inside. Seven drawers feature brass name plates on the left hand side. The exterior wood does carry some minor knocks and scuffs here and there especially on the top, as you might expect from a ‘working’ cabinet such as this which most likely came from an office or place of education. Its original purpose would have been as a filing cabinet. There is a chip to the wood at the back side which we’ve shown in our photos but its position means it’s not really noticeable. There is no maker’s mark and we’re not sure where it originates from but it dates from mid-century.
