About the Item

We are delighted to offer for sale this very rare original 1920’s solid oak with glass retractable doors stackable haberdashery cabinet A very well made and functional piece, these cabinets were designed for formal gentleman’s retailers, you would go into a shop, select your shirt and tie or socks and shoes and the assistant would slide a drawer out, place your pieces inside whilst you continued to shop You will see hundreds of variations of these types of cabinets, this one beats every single one of them, firstly it’s a stackable cabinet meaning you can add and remove sections as you wish, the glass doors are fully retractable meaning once lifted they recess inside the frame, these two features come from the world famous Globe Wernicke stacking bookcases which are very collectable and expensive. On this piece the shelves all slide out and are original, the sides are panelled oak, this is a 10x10 for a display piece or even as a functional cabinet.
