Description and History

  • Two door cabinet with stainless steel top and rail, on wheels. The doors are metal with frosted glass panels and hinge clip openers on either side of a central vertical metal strip. Inside are side supports for two shelves, but only one clear glass shelf is fitted on the lowest supports. Shelves are removeable. A pillow originally sat on the bottom shelf and bandages and linen on the middle shelf. Front metalwork around the doors looks as though it has been hand painted.
