About the Item
A large bar cabinet in wood, parchment, glass and mirrors, Italian manufacture, 1940s
Suspended on a slender base that appears to support it effortlessly, this bar cabinet is distinguished by the elegant sequence of decorative panels along its front: fourteen finely crafted parchment squares that enrich its façade. The top and sides of the bar compartment are lined with mirrors, creating an optical illusion that breaks up the angular volumes of the piece, lending it a surprising lightness and refined elegance.
Wood, parchment—a rare and artisanal material—and mirrors are combined in a piece that embodies the finest Italian taste of the 1940s. From an aesthetic point of view, the cabinet reveals an architectural quality, almost monumental in its proportions, balanced by the unmistakably artisanal attention to detail.
When the drop-down door is opened, the interior reveals a mirrored compartment divided into sections, with details in wood and parchment that echo the cabinet’s exterior design. Three integrated lights switch on automatically, creating a theatrical effect: the reflections bounce off the mirrored surfaces, enhancing the pleasure of the aperitif moment with a touch of surprise.
