About the Item

This wood marquetry and brass cabinet bar is a unique piece signed by Michel Lefèvre, crafted in the late 1960s. The main chest structure is made of sharp shaped solid wood. Its veneer marquetry, giving rise to multiple abstract shapes, is composed of rare woods such as rosewood, vinhatico wood, coralwood, amaranth, ebony and walnut. The trunk features two shelves at the front for glasses, and one large compartment at the back for bottles, all covered in polished brass. This beautiful piece has been fully restored, the wood fully revarnished, and the brass repolished.
