Early 20th Century Italian Wooden Filing Cabinet with Tambour Door

Offered by: Jacqueline Adams Antiques

Description
An early 20th-century Italian wooden filing cabinet, dating to the early 1900s, combining functional design with understated architectural presence. Crafted in solid wood with a warm natural patina, the upper section features a grid of small drawers, each fitted with original metal label holders and pulls, reflecting its original use for documents or correspondence.

The lower section is fitted with a roll-front tambour door, opening to additional storage and reinforcing the piece’s utilitarian origins. Clean lines, balanced proportions, and restrained detailing place this cabinet firmly within the tradition of early modern European office furniture, where practicality and craftsmanship were equally valued.

Both sculptural and functional, this piece works seamlessly as a filing cabinet, storage chest, or statement accent in a study, library, or contemporary interior. A rare and authentic example of early 20th-century Italian functional design with enduring appeal.

This is an antique and having been around for a long time, it will show signs of wear. Antique pieces have very much sought-after character and associated flaws. Please review photos for condition & contact us with questions!
