Large-scale multi-drawer industrial storage cabinet constructed with a painted wood case, solid oak top, and original turned oak drawer pulls, all raised on four cast iron legs with a molded decorative profile. The cabinet features a dense grid of graduated drawers arranged across nine rows, designed for systematic storage of small parts, hardware, or shop components. Drawer faces retain remnants of original paper labels, lending clear evidence of long-term workshop or institutional use. The oak top shows a warm, honest surface with visible grain and edge wear consistent with decades of service, while the painted body exhibits the muted gray-blue tone typical of early industrial interiors.

This form was common in machine shops, factories, laboratories, and supply rooms in the early 20th century, when furniture was purpose-built for durability and modular organization rather than aesthetics. The use of cast iron legs elevates the cabinet both literally and visually, protecting the base from moisture and shop debris while adding structural rigidity. American manufacturers of industrial furniture during this period specialized in overbuilt, utilitarian designs meant to withstand constant daily use-many of which survive today precisely because they were made without compromise.

Shows consistent surface wear throughout including paint loss, scuffs, edge wear, and minor chips to drawer fronts and case edges. Drawer interiors show dust and residue from use. Oak top displays age-appropriate wear with no major structural issues noted. Cast iron legs remain solid and intact.
