Small Cabinet with Bar and Internal Light - Italy - 1950s

About the Item

Refined Mid-Century Modern bar cabinet attributed to Umberto Mascagni, 1950s. A timeless piece of design that embodies the elegance and creativity of 1950s Italian design. This gorgeous bar cabinet is an authentic expression of the Mid-Century Modern style, with curvy lines and unmistakable attention to detail. The refined aesthetic of the front panel decorated with hand-painted artistic motifs recalls the work of Umberto Mascagni, a famous Italian designer of the period. The cabinet is completely original in every part, from the lacquered surfaces to the decorative details. Made of fine wood with a high-gloss finish, the top panel features a charming pictorial decoration in warm tones, inspired by stylized still life subjects and figures. The upper compartment conceals a bar equipped with interior lighting inside, perfect for creating an intimate and sophisticated atmosphere during convivial evenings. The structure has two levels, with a lower compartment closed by lacquered doors, ideal for discreet storage of bar items or accessories. The piece of furniture is in good overall condition, but needs conservative restoration work to best restore its original luster and some details of the structure. This piece of furniture is not just a piece of furniture, but a true work of art that will bring an exclusive and vintage touch to any room. Ideal for collectors and lovers of signature design.
