A brief history of industrial furniture
A tool of the trade before becoming a decorative object, industrial furniture emerged in the 19th century to meet the precision needs of apothecaries, printers, or seedsmen. Its structure, dictated by its function, is recognizable by its multitude of drawers and brass label holders, which allowed for the identification of stock without losing a second. Whether called a "plan chest" or a "workshop cabinet," it now brings a raw industrial charm and unparalleled storage capacity. This piece of furniture tells of an era when furniture was an extension of the artisan's hand, making every sign of wear a testament to its past history.
