About the Item

This monumental oak flat file cabinet stands as a commanding example of early 20th-century drafting storage, boasting sixteen wide drawers set into a solid quarter-sawn oak frame with recessed side panels and scalloped bracket feet. The original cast iron bin pulls remain intact across all fronts, while the golden oak grain has aged with exceptional depth and warmth. Likely used in an architectural firm, map room, or lithographic house, this piece was purpose-built for storing large-format prints, blueprints, or artwork. It offers both presence and practicality in a studio or design-forward retail environment, merging storage utility with architectural weight and antique craftsmanship. This piece features heavily tarnished brass drawer pulls and has been recently refinished with a new polyurethane topcoat. It shows signs of use, including deep scars and holes, and the drawer faces exhibit noticeable scratches. 51" W x 37" D x 61.25" H Drawers (x13): 44" W x 33.5" D x 2" H Please refer to photos regarding condition.
