Italian Art Deco Bar Cabinet, 1940s

$13,000.00

An Italian Art Deco bar cabinet from the 1940s, softened by rounded corners and elevated on its original brass casters.

Richly figured veneers wrap the exterior, where meticulously bookmatched chevron and herringbone marquetry create a sense of rhythm and depth. The grain shifts with the light, revealing the cabinet’s craftsmanship through pattern.

Reminiscent of work produced in Milan and Turin during the late Art Deco period, the cabinet reflects a moment when Italian designers embraced cleaner architectural forms while maintaining an exceptional standard of decorative artistry.

Designed to conceal a drinks cabinet within, it brings a sense of ceremony to entertaining while remaining visual in its closed form. In a living room, library, or dining space, it reads as an object before revealing its purpose.

ADDITIONAL DIMENSIONS: With Doors Open: 7.75"D; With Door Closed: 55.25"W

ORIGIN: Italy

PERIOD: 1940s
