J&P Coats Reproduction Thread Spool Cabinet Kit

This is a very easy to assemble kit, all the pieces are cut and the reverse panel sides come already assembled. Attach the bottom and top, slide in the drawer glides, assemble the drawers and you will look like master furniture builder.

This is our reproduction of the famous classic J & P Coats thread spool cabinets used in the general dry goods stores during the late 1800s and early 1900s.

Sewing thread and sewing notions would be displayed in these beautiful counter top cabinets. The cabinets were made in furniture factories using the same mortise- tenon and reverse side panel construction of furniture made during that time period.

Thread companies would provide these cabinets mostly for free to stores that sold the threads and sewing items. Traveling salesmen would make frequent visits to restock the cabinets.

This reproduction cabinet is a Cottage Craft Works exclusive design.  It was actually built as a prototype by Paul Stevens and then sent to one of our Amish craftsmen to make exclusively for us.

We sell this spool cabinet kit unfinished in Cherry, Walnut, Quarter Sawed Oak or Oak.The cabinet is priced in Oak as pictured, select Walnut, Quarter Sawed Oak or Cherry to see the incremental price differences. Most all of the original cabinets were made from Oak or Walnut.

The cabinet is Amish handcrafted from 3/4” and 1/2" premium hardwoods.  The inside of the cabinet shows the attention to the detail of craftsmanship as much as the beautiful outside.

The sides are reverse panel, and the inside drawer rail construction duplicates the furniture designs used during these periods.  These cabinets are built to become tomorrow’s family antique heirlooms.

The cabinet measures 23-1/2 wide X 17” Deep X 19-1/2 Tall.  The cabinet is custom sized to make a perfect end or side table.  The size also allows us to ship these at standard UPS Rates.

Five drawers with an inside space of 19”Wide X 14” Deep X 2-3/8 Tall makes an ideal cabinet to store magazines, hobby, collections and craft items out of the way when company comes a calling, or use it in a sewing room to recreate a bit of nostalgia.

The cabinet comes standard with white Porcelain knobs as pictured.  If you wish to have different knobs you may select to have the cabinet shipped without the knobs, and add your own.  Selecting this option below will discount the cost $15.  The holes will be drilled, but will require longer screws than the standard door knobs made for a 3/4" drawer. The cabinet will require 1-1/2" screws to fit you knobs available at home and hardware stores.

Each cabinet or kit is custom hand crafted per each order. Please expect between two-three weeks for oak and between four-six weeks for quarter sawed oak, walnut or cherry before your cabinet will be shipped.

We are pleased to bring you an such an exceptional piece of Amish custom made furniture in an easy to assemble kit for a very reasonable price.
