AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Refined television cart dating back to the late 1950s, characterized by a sleek and minimalist design, perfectly aligned with the post-war modernist aesthetic. The supporting structure is made of black metal with gold accents, highlighting the tapered lines of the legs and enhancing their elegance. The cart extends over two levels, each with shelves in transparent glass supported by matte brass bars with original rubber pads for a secure and stable resting place. Notably, it lacks two rubber pads.
The legs open slightly downward, ending with four swiveling metal wheels, all functional, allowing easy movement of the piece even on delicate surfaces. The contrast between the glossy black, satin brass, and glass creates a light yet sophisticated visual effect, making this piece ideal not only as a TV stand but also as a small bar cabinet or support for hi-fi systems in vintage or contemporary settings.
In good overall condition, it shows minor signs of age such as scratches, slight dents, and some damage to the golden cord, all highlighted in the photos. The defects do not compromise functionality or aesthetics.
Seller's Story
I have always been passionate about our past, knowing it is the only thing that does not cease the connection between what is and what was.
When I reached the right age I understood that my passion had to coincide with my work and so I opened a business.
The key principles are quality and love towards the customer.
