The Finest Watkins & Doncaster De-luxe 30 Drawer Collectors Cabinet. Circa 1900. Superb in Every Way.

1900 - 1920
Description

This is by far the finest watkins & doncaster collectors cabinet I have ever had the pleasure to handle.

A de-luxe model in solid mahogany throughout with 30 extra deep drawers. This is the only example I have ever come across with these proportions and I believe it to be a specially commissioned and unique production by this famous supplier.

Made in 1900 and using the very finest materials this cabinet is in superb condition. It has been little used and the excellent colour and condition bears witness to this fact. The drawers are unusually deep and will lend themselves to a multitude of collecting pursuits. If the cabinet returns to the entomological community it will be ideal for larger orders of both lepidoptera or coleoptera. The top six drawers have an overall depth of 3.5 inches and the lower twenty four drawers an overall depth of 2.5 inches.

The drawers are all base lined with a layer of cork and are papered throughout.

All original and carried on hidden casters below. Original working lock and key, six hinges to the doors and top quality original threaded mahogany drawer knobs.

I thoroughly commend this fine piece and am happy to answer any questions you may have.

Safe and secure delivery can be arranged.
