This is a 12 piece set of mid century vintage metal kitchen cabinets made by Republic Steel. The set features an upper corner cabinet, two blind right base cabinets. It also includes a front panel for a sink base and one additional front panel for a base cabinet (see photos at end).
The upper cabinets have recessed grooves behind flat metal doors and the base cabinets have chrome bar handles fitted across grooves in the drawer fronts.
Metal kitchen cabinets became particularly popular after WWII when steel production capacity was high and became more available for the consumer market again. This set appears to have been pale yellow originally, then painted turquoise, then re-painted white. Some of the drawers and cabinets are turquoise inside and some are yellow.
Please note, this vintage cabinet set will need restoration and has a substantial amount of rust and chipping of paint throughout (see photos).
