Jessen & Rosberg of Chicago. Large and rare wooden Watchmaker's fitted cabinet. It is in 6 sections with 16 drawers, 2 door cupboard and 2 pull out shelves just under its top. It is in physically sound condition with surface scratches and damage to the underside of one drawer which is also slightly hard to close due to poor repair. There is a side member missing just under the right hand side of its top.
On the base section we used a little wood glue repair to strengthen it up, so there is no gap in the leg joint which you can see on the left hand leg in the photo. The pulls are metal and all original.
The 6 sections fit snugly together and there is no woodworm or any other damage except for what has already been mentioned. The 6 sections fit together like a barrister style bookcase. 2 pull out library card catalog type tray shelves.
The dividers inside the drawers are glued in but will likely break out easily with minimal effort. Great for collecting or crafting storage or to make into a really nice jewelry dresser. From a smoke free home.
