About the Item

This beautifully weathered antique apothecary cabinet is a relic from the early 20th century, featuring an impressive 117 uniform drawers housed within a striking oak-framed body. This cabinet was likely originally used in a hardware store or workshop and would have housed small parts, screws, and nails. Each drawer is constructed with a solid oak front and a tin interior, providing both durability and a lightweight structure. The drawers are fitted with their original porcelain knobs, many of which still retain the patina and wear of a working life spent in a busy commercial setting. A few pulls are missing or damaged, consistent with its age, but most remain intact and fully functional. The entire cabinet is designed as a two-piece unit, making it easier to transport and allowing for flexible display or usage. Use the full piece stacked for maximum visual impact and storage capacity, or separate the upper and lower halves for more versatile arrangement in smaller spaces. The darkened oak frame, scuffed paint, and timeworn wood top show the marks of honest age, giving the cabinet a rich, industrial charm that can’t be replicated. From collectors and designers to shop owners and creatives, this piece is ideal for those who love utility with character. Features: • 117 drawers, all of uniform size • Oak-faced drawers with tin interiors • Original white porcelain pulls, aged and varied in wear • Two-piece construction for ease of transport or modular use • Structurally sound with authentic distressed finish Condition: • Displays minor cosmetic wear including chipped paint, scuffs, and a few broken or missing knobs • Wood has wear and natural aging, especially visible on top surface and corners • Clean overall and ready for use or restoration, depending on your style preference Dimensions: • Overall cabinet: 47” W x 12” D x 56” H • Drawer interiors (each): 4” W x 9.5” D x 3.5” H AF - 11303 - 040325
