The proportions are exceptional — tall and narrow with strong architectural presence while maintaining a compact footprint suitable for modern interiors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"861\" data-end=\"1147\"\u003eThe current turquoise finish was applied during the cabinet’s working life and has since developed a remarkable aged surface and patina. Areas of the original industrial grey remain visible on the reverse and interior, revealing layers of use and maintenance accumulated over decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1149\" data-end=\"1506\"\u003eSurface wear throughout including scratches, oxidation, paint loss, and localized rust-through concentrated near the lower edges from long-term environmental exposure. We have intentionally left the cabinet in untouched found condition, preserving the atmosphere and visual character that make authentic industrial pieces increasingly difficult to source.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1508\" data-end=\"1537\"\u003eAn outstanding candidate for:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"1538\" data-end=\"1717\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"7vl94w\" data-start=\"1538\" data-end=\"1570\"\u003eloft or industrial interiors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1injdy2\" data-start=\"1571\" data-end=\"1607\"\u003erestaurant or hospitality design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"f81s9h\" data-start=\"1608\" data-end=\"1626\"\u003eretail display\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1lopdkt\" data-start=\"1627\" data-end=\"1652\"\u003epantry or bar storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"zfc8zn\" data-start=\"1653\" data-end=\"1676\"\u003estudio organization\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"6fnmwc\" data-start=\"1677\" data-end=\"1717\"\u003earchitectural statement installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1719\" data-end=\"1800\"\u003eEqually compelling as functional storage or as standalone industrial sculpture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1802\" data-end=\"1849\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1802\" data-end=\"1816\"\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1816\" data-end=\"1819\"\u003e16.5\" W x 16\" Deep x 77.5\" H\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1851\" data-end=\"2225\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1851\" data-end=\"1864\"\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1864\" data-end=\"1867\"\u003eVintage industrial steel cabinet with aged overpaint and significant wear consistent with age and use including scratches, oxidation, paint loss, and localized rust-through near the lower edges.
