circa: 2000 width: 36 height: 39 length: 24 This antique style walnut file cabinet is bench-made in England by a team of master craftsmen. The burl walnut, being lightly hand-distressed, hand-finished and hand-waxed, displays a distinct, fine grain and rich complexion that could only come from fine workmanship. The leather inlay on the top, which is bordered by hand-worked embossing and gold tooling, complements the walnut beautifully, while the antiqued solid-brass swan neck pulls also contrast well with the wood. Optional satinwood or walnut crossbanding around the drawers places a nice emphasis on the style and class of the wood and brass configuration, while shaped paneling on the sides combines with ogee bracket feet to complete a traditional English antique style appearance. Each of the file drawers locks with an accompanying key and features hand-cut dovetailed joints, which are yet another indicator of fine craftsmanship. This English antique style office file cabinet will certainly function wonderfully for generations to come and would make a fantastic addition to any home or office furniture collection21
