19th Century 9 Drawer Cigarette Cabinet, by Stephen Mitchell and Sons of Glasgow

This is a really interesting piece of Social History, the cabinet like so many others was supplied by the Tobacco manufacturers to the retail trade.
The cabinet is made in Mahogany with a carved decoration to the front of the piece, it has a glazed front and 9 glazed drawers, which are numbered, these pull out from the side of the cabinet and have replacement brass knobs
The Mitchell company was the most important of its kind, first established in 1723 until 1901 when it was merged with W.D. & H.O.Wills and then on to become the Imperial Tobacco Company
This is well documented piece, with both carved and brass property owners labels on the back, it is in good condition for its age, a little chipping to one top corner and a glass missing from one of the drawers
The cabinet is 38” tall, 23” wide and 6.5” deep
