About the Item
Monumental industrial hardware cabinet constructed from solid hardwood, fitted with an extraordinary array of 370 drawers in graduated sizes. The upper section features a dense grid of small drawers with brass pulls and label holders, originally intended for the organized storage of fasteners, fittings, or precision hardware, while the stepped lower section incorporates larger drawers for bulkier stock. Drawer interiors are metal-lined, reinforcing the cabinet's role in a working industrial or commercial environment. The cabinet presents a strong architectural presence, with its sheer scale and repetition of drawers creating a striking visual rhythm rooted in pure function.
Industrial cabinets of this type were produced for factories, machine shops, and hardware distributors during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when systematic parts storage became essential to modern manufacturing. Built to endure decades of hard use, these cabinets were rarely marked and were valued for capacity, durability, and modular construction. This example separates into two main sections, allowing for transport and installation despite its substantial size and weight.
Completely refinished in shop. Shows punctures, cracks, and losses to the rear boards consistent with age and industrial use; front-facing surfaces and drawers present cleanly following restoration. Cabinet is extremely heavy.
