The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A tambour front filing cabinet features a flexible door made of narrow wood slats mounted to canvas, which slides vertically along internal tracks to enclose the storage shelves or drawers.

These cabinets were constructed using solid oak or oak veneers, canvas fabric for slatted door backings, and metal components such as brass or steel escutcheon plates and keylocks.

Authentic pieces feature flexible slatted doors with fabric backings, traditional dovetail joinery, period-correct metal lock plates, and streamlined geometric proportions typical of early twentieth-century design.

A tambour filing cabinet functions as office paper storage, a hallway utility cupboard, or a compact bedside cabinet, complementing industrial, traditional, and mid-century modern interior aesthetics.

Maintain the piece by applying natural beeswax to the external oak surfaces and keeping the vertical side tracks clean and lubricated with dry paraffin wax for smooth door operation.
