Description

Antique iron ministerial security file. The file comes from the treasury office of the old I.C.A. - Mantova Public Entities Supplies. In the Municipality of Mantua, the compulsory collection service of municipal revenues and the service of ascertaining and collecting the single property fee, has been managed by I.C.A. for over 60 years. The treasury file still presents the official ferry for the supplies of public bodies, the robustness and solidity of this piece of furniture made it perfectly suited to what were documents and valuable taxes. The shelves can be adjusted in height and can be divided horizontally by means of card inserts. The solid iron doors did not have glass windows but metal grids, such as to make the contents visible but in total safety. The considerable weight made everything not easily removable. The cabinet has been completely restored, the painted parts have been treated for oxidation and rust, then powder coated in an anthracite gray color. The doors always treated, material corten effect. The lock, although original, does not have a key and the cabinet is therefore equipped with a rubberized chain with padlock to be affixed between the two soft iron handles. The decoration on the base is also in soft iron. A discreet 0.8 cm hole has been used in the bottom of the cabinet to insert a station with 240 volt current which makes the cabinet also suitable for containing more electronic parts without seeing wires coming out. The exceptional rarity and small size make it a unique and impactful piece of furniture even with the most classic furnishings, as well as being a "must" of the industrial style.

Antico schedario ministeriale di sicurezza in ferro. Lo schedario proviene dall’ufficio di tesoreria della vecchia I.C.A. - Mantova Forniture Enti Pubblici. Nel Comune di Mantova il servizio di riscossione coattiva delle entrate comunali e il servizio di accertamento e riscossione del canone unico patrimoniale, da oltre 60 anni è gestito da I.C.A. Lo schedario di tesoreria presenta ancora la traghetta ufficiale delle forniture degli enti pubblici, la robustezza la solidità di questo mobile lo rendeva perfettamente adatto a quello che erano documenti e tributi di valore. I ripiani sono regolabili in altezza e divisibili in orizzontale mediante paratie inseribili a scheda. Gli sportelli sempre in ferro pieno non presentavano finestre in vetro ma griglie in metallo, tali da rendere il contenuto visibile ma in totale sicurezza. Il peso notevole rendeva il tutto non facilmente asportabile. Il mobile è stato completamente restaurato, le parti verniciate sono state trattate per l’ossidazione e la ruggine, poi verniciate a polvere in un colore grigio antracite. Gli sportelli sempre trattati, effetto corten materico. La serratura seppur originale non ha la chiave ed il mobile viene quindi dotato di una catenella gommata con lucchetto da apporre fra le due maniglie in ferro dolce. Sempre in ferro dolce è la decorazione sulla base. Nel fondo del mobile si è sfruttato un discreto foro da 0,8 cm per infilare una postazione con corrente da 240 volt che rende il mobile adatto anche a contenere più parti elettroniche senza vedere fili che escono. L'eccezionale rarità e le dimensioni contenute lo rendono un elemento d’arredo unico e d’impatto anche con gli arredamenti più classici, oltre ad essere un “must” dello stile industriale.

Cancellations and Returns

Our Terms of sale were designed to treat both Customers and Vendors (including Professional Vendors and Non-Professional Vendors (as defined in the Site Terms)) fairly, in order to make the shopping/selling experience with Vinterior just as exceptional as the items.

We've extended our usual return period for the holidays. Any purchases made in December 2023 on gifting items can be returned up until 31 January 2024.

To protect our Customers from disappointment or the unexpected, we strongly encourage them to closely inspect item photos, descriptions, and details before purchasing anything on the Site, and then again upon delivery or pickup.

If the Customer is unsure about an item's condition, dimensions, quantity, or description, they can send their questions to the item’s Vendor by clicking on Ask the seller on the listing page of the Site.

Customers shall receive the same level of consumer protection on purchases irrespective of whether they are buying from a Professional Vendor or Non-Professional Vendor.

Should you have any questions regarding your transaction, please contact the Vendor in the first instance.

Can I cancel an order?

If a Customer changes their mind or decides for any other reason that they do not want to purchase the Goods before the Goods have been dispatched, they can cancel the order on the Site and receive a refund.

The right to cancel does not apply to the following types of Goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke or made-to-order to the customer’s specific requirements. If in doubt, the Customer can contact the Vendor via the Site.

If the Customer cancels an order after an item has already been marked as dispatched for delivery, the costs of delivery are non-refundable.

To cancel the order, the Customer must follow the cancellation procedure on the Site by clicking on Create Cancellation on the order page.

Can I return an item?

Consumers based in the UK and European Union can request to return the Goods on Vinterior up to 14 days after the Goods have been received. Once accepted, the buyer is in charge of the shipment and should organise it as soon as possible (except in the case of a return of faulty Goods).

To initiate a return, the Customer must click on Create a return on the order page on the Site. In the return request, the reason for the return must be included along with photos of any damage of the Goods, if faulty.

As with cancellations, the right to return an item does not apply to the following types of Goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke or made-to-order to the Customer’s specific requirements.

Additionally, the Customer may not return an item for "inaccurate listing” reason when its dimensions or other characteristics do not fit its requirements. We strongly recommend that buyer measures all access areas prior to making a purchase.

If in doubt, the Customer can contact the Vendor via the Site.

In case of a return, the costs of delivery (i.e., outbound delivery costs when Goods are sent from the Vendor to a Customer) are non-refundable.

The Customer is responsible for organising the return of Goods and for paying delivery costs. Once the item is returned to the Vendor in the same condition, the Vendor will confirm receipt and refund the Customer. If an item is returned to the seller damaged, or in an unsuitable condition, Vinterior will not be able to process the refund and the seller may have to send it back to you (and ask you to cover the delivery costs). All items are inspected on return.

Acting under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, customers may return faulty Goods that are damaged in transportation or the listing on the Site is materially inaccurate, misleading, or misrepresents the Goods. In these cases, the Customer must provide photographic evidence to Vinterior and the Vendor or reject the delivery on arrival.

In case of damage in transit for all items, Vinterior must be informed. Vinterior will then raise an insurance claim on behalf the Vendor with delivery company Proovia. Once the claim is resolved and any relevant decision regarding the insurance has been made, any applicable refunds will be processed.

Please note that vintage items are not sold as new and are likely to show signs of wear and tear. This is not sufficient grounds for a refund.

Vendors may refuse a return of an item if it has been altered by the Customer in any way.

Neither Vinterior nor the Vendors are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.

Price match guarantee
