Large Antique Pine Campaign Cupboard (G0605F)
A very large antique pine campaign cupboard dating from c.1910 - in good condition.
The purpose of campaign furniture is that is "breaks" down or "folds" down for ease of moving it, or travelling with it. In the case of this particular piece, it would most likely have been placed near the front door of a house, maybe the hall, storing important possessions that could easily be moved, in case of fire. It is also known as a fire safe cupboard.
This campaign cupboard has the original carrying handles at each end. Its cupboard doors have very attractive panels and working locks and key. Inside each cupboard is a single shelf.
These “stackable” cupboards, are excellent pieces of furniture if your property is difficult to access, ie.flat or difficult stairway.
