With our absolute highest compliments Bay Colony Antiques takes the utmost pleasure in offering an exceptional and rare antique flat file printers cabinet. The market for premium antique oak office furniture has reached an all-time high as a growing number of Americans are now working from home and requiring the best cabinets and filing systems for their office spaces. We have always sought out the finest antique oak office furniture for our clients and have noticed the task of sourcing similar printer's cabinets to replace previously sold counterparts as an increasingly difficult challenge against national demand. We foresee the day where these cabinets are simply not attainable as the best ones will have been taken off the market and as value continues to increase owners will be unwilling to part with the cabinets that they own. Architects and artists have always been our primary client base for these cabinets for the past few decades but today we find that film production rentals and individuals with home offices are becoming the most routine customers and that demand is clearly far outpacing availability. This cabinet is one of the finest available anywhere in this format consisting of twenty lateral drawers and a solid case of antique oak hardwood with raised double panel sides. The Hamilton manufacturing company is regarded as one of if not the best producer of this style cabinet and even single drawers sold at antique shops and flea markets are selling for in excess of $100 per drawer. The original cast iron pulls are also prized within the secondary markets as if they were made from a precious metal or the only ones left in existence. Each drawer measures 1 1/4" tall x 11 3/4" wide between the drawer partition which splits the usable storage space in half and 14 3/4" deep from the front to back of the drawer. Overall the entire cabinet measures 31 1/2" wide x 21 1/4" deep x 43" tall. This particular size format is considered one of the most desirable as these cabinets will fit in practical spaces and not take up too much storage space but still provide a generous amount of functional usage. Many of the original printer's cabinets are far too large and impractical for individual needs and belong in an industrial setting.
