Can anyone tell me what I'm looking for?

Because I don't know what it's called, and googling isn't helping.

I'm looking for a sort of kitchen island, with lots of small drawers. It looks a bit office-y, with metal label holders on each drawer so that you can label what is in it.

I have seen one, I haven't dreamed it, but can't for the life of me find one similar.

It might be Scandinavian... But Ikea don't seem to have one.

It's really bugging me!

Are they butchers blocks?

knittedslippersx2 · 17/08/2014 10:48

Oh, maybe not. I don't think they have lots of drawers! Sorry!

Hamsolo · 17/08/2014 11:01

Nope, but they look great!

Is it on wheels?

Have you seen one? Was it custom made / customised?

Have you looked at office supplies rather than kitchens......

Found this on pinterest.....

'kitchen islands drawers' - it's a repurposed thing made from old filing cabinets....

Could it be an apothecary cabinet?

A merchant's chest? They don't usually have label holders but you could easily add your own.

Have a look on the Achica website - they often have furniture in that type of style. Tip though, if you see something you really like, Google it as Achica, prices are not always the cheapest.

I think what you mean is a library card cabinet? Google images threw up the right sort of looking item for your description :)

I've always known them as apothecary chests if they have square ish drawers, wide thin drawers and it's an architects chest/drawers.
