Item Description

This beautiful antique dental cabinet came from a dentist in New York City and was made in the early 1900s. It was purchased from Mrs Martin at The Collinsville Peddler.
Our research indicates the maker is most likely The Harvard Company in Canton Ohio. At the time of purchase it was painted black and our client stripped it and was pleasantly surprised to notice that the base was marble. She wondered why it was so heavy! In good condition for its age with normal wear. Note the very bottom drawer has some wood missing to bottom of drawer.
Top: two shelves, top shelves made of marble
Bottom:
24 drawers with one cabinet door that opens to more storage
32” wide
13.5” at deepest point (top section is 7” deep)
61.5” tall

While people had been performing dental surgeries for thousands of years, codified dentistry didn't develop in earnest until the late 18th century and early 19th centuries. The Baltimore College of Dental Surgery was established in 1840 as the world's first dental school, and just a year later, Alabama enacted legislation which sought to regulate dentistry in its state. These developments marked an important shift in the dental arts, and with them came the need for specialized tools and equipment. Thus, dentistry cabinets became a fundamental feature of the dental office as they helped dentists organize their tools in a refined and professional manner.
When you first see many of the antique dental cabinets from years past, you might think they resemble turn-of-the-century china cabinets, sideboards, and secretary bookcases. However, these multi-shelved cabinets are much narrower than these other pieces of furniture.

In addition to being a stunning addition to your home furnishings, these versatile pieces of furniture have an endless number of uses. All of the small drawers and compartments that they have make excellent places to store your jewelry, family photographs, or other small treasures. You can easily convert cabinets with glass enclosed sections into unique curios that display all of your favorite collectibles with elegance. Crafters can store their scrapbooking, needlework, or jewelry making supplies inside.
