Now sold

An early 20th century 25 drawer printing house cabinet from France.

Used originally in a print works to house the typesetter's steel letter blocks for poster printing.

Beautiful wear with a rich time-soaked patina. Some sun bleached drawer fronts provide a variety of hues and contrasts in colour.

Super drawer labels and type-style descriptions from differing decades of its working life. Some most likely as old as the piece itself.

The cabinet has been lovingly cleaned, had a light wax to seal in the 'goodness' and is ready for use.
