Description

An early 20th-century mahogany office cabinet, likely used within a legal practice or institutional setting.
The cabinet is constructed in solid mahogany and stands on shaped bracket feet, fitted with four panelled doors arranged in two tiers. Each door retains its deep red glass panels, reverse-painted and gilt with the wording “Farrer and Co – Barristers – Solicitors”, suggesting the cabinet was either purpose-made for, or later adapted to, a named legal firm.

This office cabinet has a restrained architectural form, enhanced by the dentil-style cornice detail, a subtle but decorative touch that lifts the overall piece without overpowering it.

Originally intended for use in an office, chambers, or institutional environment rather than a retail setting, the cabinet today lends itself beautifully as statement storage in a study, library, office, or characterful interior.

We believe that the hand painted writing has been retouched over the years, or added later on.
