Sold for: £14
A workshop cabinet of rectangular form, constructed from heavy-gauge sheet metal with a blue powder-coated finish. The unit features two shallow upper drawers, each fitted with a full-width silver-tone metal pull. Below these is a large, deep storage compartment featuring a recessed black plastic handle. The cabinet is mounted on four swivel casters, two of which are equipped with locking mechanisms. The interior configuration of the drawers and compartment is not specified. No maker’s marks, signatures, or labels are visible on the item.
Condition report:
The cabinet shows signs of heavy industrial use and wear. The blue powder-coated finish across all panels is marked by significant cosmetic wear, including widespread scratches, scuffs, and abrasions. Visible surface oxidation is present on the metal frame at the base and on all four caster assemblies, with one assembly showing particularly heavy corrosion. The silver-tone drawer pulls exhibit signs of oxidation and accumulated grime. The rubber surfaces of the wheels show wear consistent with movement on workshop floors. The mechanical functionality of the drawer slides and lower compartment hinges has not been tested.
