Early 42-Drawer Apothecary Cabinet in Original Red Paint

Early 42-Drawer Apothecary Cabinet in Original Red Paint

A breathtaking early apothecary cabinet, and one of the most visually compelling pieces of American country furniture you can own. Forty-two small drawers, each with its original turned wooden knob, fill the face in a wonderfully irregular grid — slightly varying sizes, gently misaligned, worn and loosened just enough by age to remind you that every one of these drawers has been opened and closed thousands of times by hands long gone.


Whether used in a primitive interior, a study, or as a standalone display object, this cabinet commands attention. Apothecary cabinets of this drawer count, this surface quality, and this early character are among the most sought-after pieces in American country antiques — and increasingly hard to find.
