About the Item

A beautiful 1940s Italian bar cabinet attributed to Paolo Buffa, featuring a beautifully crafted walnut veneer, sculptural ebonized legs, and brass accents. The symmetrical facade conceals generous storage space, including glass shelving, a mirrored serving area, and two interior drawers. The top is finished with a delicately curved glass panel. Buffa’s signature style, blending modernity and elegance—is evident in the cabinet’s geometric details and precise craftsmanship.
