​this sleek industrial filing cabinet was produced in france during the 1960s by the specialized manufacturer g. Borgeaud & cie (montrouge). It stands as a perfect example of french mid-century industrial design, blending functionalism with an elegant aesthetic.

the piece features a sturdy white lacquered metal frame resting on a tubular base, offering a light and airy silhouette unlike heavy traditional industrial furniture. The front features 15 spacious compartments, each highlighted by a warm oak veneer finish and original circular metal knobs. The contrast between the clinical white metal and the organic wood texture gives it a sophisticated, "soft industrial" look.

with its 15 drawers, this cabinet offers exceptional storage capacity. Originally designed for sorting documents, it is ideal today for organizing a home office, an entryway, or as a statement piece in a living room for storing vinyl records, prints, or magazines.
​condition:

very good vintage condition. The mechanism works perfectly. The oak veneer has a beautiful patina, and the white lacquer has been cleaned and polished. Ready to use.
