Vintage chest of drawers with twenty drawers – Central Europe, around 1950

Vintage counter-dresser with twenty drawers from Central Europe. It comes from commercial furniture of the mid-20th century, when this type of furniture equipped haberdasheries and shops to display and store small items. Pieces like this served as counters in stores and haberdasheries, organizing merchandise according to a grid of identical drawers under a protective glass top. The body, made of light wood, is organized into five columns of four drawers with saber-shaped brass handles and rests on thin black lacquered metal legs. The wood retains a uniform light hue characteristic of decades of commercial use, with the original glass top protecting the upper surface.
