Description from the seller

Elegant and distinctive vintage two-tier bar or serving trolley, dating from the mid-20th century, featuring a refined combination of wood, brass-coloured metal and decorative details.

The trolley has a rectangular structure with two spacious wooden shelves, both finished with a glossy surface and enhanced by elegant brass-coloured metal edging. Each shelf is surrounded by a decorative gallery composed of numerous small turned dark-metal elements, providing both a practical function and a sophisticated appearance.

The upper section is equipped with two large side handles, made of brass-coloured metal and turned wood, allowing the trolley to be moved easily. The vertical supports are also made of turned wood and decorated with metal details.

The lower shelf features three circular metal bottle holders, making the trolley particularly suitable for use as a drinks or bar trolley for bottles, glasses and serving accessories.

A pull-out drawer is located beneath the upper shelf, providing convenient storage for small serving accessories, cutlery, napkins or other items.

The trolley stands on four large wheels, with metal construction and decorative spokes, allowing it to be moved around easily. The combination of the wheels, galleries and handles gives the piece both functionality and a distinctive decorative character.
