D and A Binder Ltd has dated this piece to the 1910s.
The shaped oak tray fronts are each fitted with their original metal label holders, while the tray sides are traditionally constructed with dovetailed joints.
Each group of trays sits behind its own glass front, which opens using the small metal catches positioned along the lower edge. This allowed shop staff to easily view the contents while keeping stock protected from dust, opening only the section required.
Below the glazed section are four large storage drawers, arranged two over two and fitted with original metal cup handles, providing useful additional storage for larger or reserve stock.
The cabinet retains its original Heggie & Aitchison, Edinburgh maker’s plaque. The firm were well-established Edinburgh shopfitters and showcase makers, producing high-quality commercial interiors and display furniture during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
A impressive piece , offering a huge amount of storage.It would work beautifully in a retail interior, studio, archive or as an unusual storage and display piece within the home.
