This wooden composition with drawers was made by my grandfather in 1955. It is still in the shop I run. It is a rare and collectible piece that is still functional.

So well seen for the photographic potential of this handmade combination of drawers. Exceptional craftsmanship and what a wonderful vintage organizer. Very nicely captured and thanks for sharing. VV++

What a beautiful piece of living history! Your grandfather’s work still standing in the shop, still useful, still carrying that quiet dignity of well-made wood. A collectible that hasn’t been locked away, but kept in the life of the business. He would be proud to see it still serving, and still loved. V

Wow, that’s so cool. It must have taken your grandfather a while to build that. Wonderful craftsmanship and so terrific that you are still using it. V

Interesting to see this in Greece. There are millions of them in China, Taiwan and Hong Kong, all made of wood, used by the herbal doctors. Each drawer is for one kind of herb, labelled on the outside. Those used by the herbal doctors may not be built so high, for easy access. I haven't seen anyone reaching the high drawers on a long ladder. Yes, it's functional. Nice shot ! ~VVVVV~
