A Brief History of Industrial Furniture
A working tool before becoming a decorative object, industrial furniture emerged in the 19th century to meet the precision needs of apothecaries, printers, and seed merchants. Its structure, dictated by its use, is recognizable by its multitude of drawers and brass nameplates that allowed inventory to be identified without losing a second. Whether called a "plan cabinet" or an "atelier chest of drawers," it now brings a raw industrial charm and unparalleled storage capacity. This piece of furniture tells of a time when furniture was an extension of the artisan's hand, making every trace of wear a testament to its past history.
