Antique early 20th century wooden card index filing cabinet with four drawers and original-style brass swing handles. A proper old-office piece with warm, time-darkened timber and that unmistakable “library / records room” vibe—perfect for the current dark academia and old-money study trend, or as a film/photography prop in a period interior.
Originally made for index cards and paper slips, it still works brilliantly as practical desktop storage for receipts, letters, photos, ephemera, postcards, sewing patterns, or studio bits. The drawers have nice depth and the unit has a solid, weighty feel.
Condition is honest antique: scuffs, scratches, small knocks and edge wear throughout, with age marks to the drawer fronts and general wear inside the drawers consistent with decades of use (as shown). Hardware shows patina. Drawers slide and present well for use and display.
Measures approx. 39 x 28 x 50 cm (15.4" x 11.0" x 19.7").
