Italian mid‑century modern bar cart with veneered wood and black painted metal, accented by brass fittings, 58 cm high, 45 cm wide, 64 cm deep, produced in Italy and attributed to an unidentified designer, in good used condition with age-related patina.
Description from the seller
Elegant vintage Italian-design bar cart / serving trolley, dating presumably to the 1950s-1960s, characterized by a refined combination of materials typical of Mid-Century.
The frame is made of black-painted metal tubing, with light, slender lines, mounted on four distinctive wheels with a brass-toned finish.
It features two wide veneered wood shelves, enhanced by thin decorative fillets in contrasting color that run longitudinally along the surfaces. The rounded corners further lighten the overall design.
Particularly beautiful are the numerous brass details, including the handles and the thin railing-like edge to contain the shelves, which create an elegant contrast with the black of the frame and the warm tones of the wood.
An extremely decorative piece of furniture and still perfectly usable as a bar cart, serving trolley, tea trolley, or furnishing accessory in Mid-Century, vintage, or contemporary settings.
The piece preserves a pleasant original patina of its time, with normal signs of use consistent with its age, visible in the photographs.
