Antiques & Vintage Treasures from Around the World with Easy, Affordable Shipping of Even the Largest Pieces
ATTRIBUTES: Beautiful burled walnut cabinet, original finish and hardware. Mirrored interior and space for picks and such on the top (barware not included). When you pull the door, the top automatically rises. There's a roomy compartment below for storage. Great little piece from 1940s England.
POTENTIAL USES: It's a grand little cocktail bar, perfectly sized to fit just about anywhere. Use it in the bedroom, library, home office, living room. Its main purpose is to inspire you to sit down, relax, have a martini. Sweet!
There's also a light, which you can have a competent electrician make operable. And here's our MissLynette Don't-Cut-That-Cord! public service announcement: We have long been horrified to hear antiques dealers and auctioneers across the land suggest that folks make European lights operable on US current by chopping off the plug and replacing it with one from the US. Do. Not. Do. This. No matter how good it sounds, it's a recipe for disaster, house-up-in-smoke disaster, and no fabulous cocktail bar or chandelier is worth that. You may know people who have done this and nothing bad has happened. All we can say to that is yet. It doesn't cost much for an electrician to rework the light. It's worth your life to have it done right.
Here endeth the PSA. Back to this bar. There is a light. The bar's a sweet, jazzy little thing, an absolute incitement to party. If you want a little more light, see your electrician.
