Vintage Design
The boxes are made of strong, stable cardboard / paperboard, partly covered with fabric and painted dark green. The flaps can be closed by small snap fasteners – these are all embossed with a horse’s head and the words ”Breveté S.D.G.D.” (Breveté S.G.D.G. is the name for a patent as it was valid in France until 1968. The expression stands for ”Breveté Sans Garantie Du Gouvernement” and means translated: ”Patent without government guarantee”).
The crates can be ”locked” by means of a central locking bar on the right and on the left, so that neither removal is possible nor can they be opened. The cabinet itself is made of oak and is rather plain and functional. All boxes are signed Benier & Co a Dutch firm which used to do the interior design of offices.
Perfect item for a restaurant of pub (to store the menus) of at a lawyers firm. For example.
