MEMPHIS "HILTON" Glass Trolley/BarCart by Javier Mariscal (Design: 1981)
Located in Brooklyn, NY
Sleek, happy-looking glass & lacquered steel rolling bar & serving cart by the most iconic Spanish designer of the 1980's --- Javier Mariscal!! He designed the mascot/logo Gobi for the Barcelona Olympics in 1992, including the colorful, Miro-like Olympic logo. His nightclubs, hotels, restaurants & other furniture objects always possessed a great sense of verve & wit --- this HILTON cart looks as though it could get a ticket for speeding even while it is standing still!!! Javier was born in Valencia in 1950. In 1971 he moved to Barcelona to study Graphic Design at the acclaimed Elisava School. While there, he formed alliances with counter-culture radical comic book writers and illustrators of the time, such as Mique Beltrán, Daniel Torres and Sento. Together they set up "El Rollo Enmascarado", a group specialized in underground subversive comics. In the 1980s, he worked as interior designer of nightclubs, collaborated with Memphis and (as stated) created Cobi, the mascot for the 1992 Olympic...

Antique and Vintage Carts and Bar Carts

Forever a sleek and elegant furnishing that evokes luxury and sophistication, a vintage bar cart will prove both functional and fabulous in your living room.

Bar carts as we know them were originally conceived as tea trolleys — a modest-sized table on wheels, sometimes featuring both an upper and lower shelf — to help facilitate tea service during the Victorian era in England. Modern bar carts weren’t really a common fixture in American interiors until after the end of Prohibition in the 1930s, when they were rolled onto the sets of Hollywood films. There, they suggested wealth and status in the dining rooms of affluent characters.

As tough as the 1930s had been on the average working American, the postwar era yielded economic stability and growth in homeownership. Increasingly, bar carts designed by the likes of Edward Wormley and other furniture makers became an integral part of sunken living rooms across the United States in the 1950s.

Bar carts were a must-have addition to the sensuous and sleek low-profile furnishings that we now call mid-century modern, each outfitted with the finest spirits and savory snacks that people had to offer. And partially owing to critical darlings like Mad Men, vintage cocktail carts have since seen a resurgence and have even become a selling point in restaurants.

Bar carts not only boast tremendous utilitarian value but also introduce a fun, nostalgic dynamic to the layout of your space, be it in the bar area or elsewhere. In addition to showcasing your favorite bottles of rye and local small-batch gin — or juices and mocktail ingredients — there is an undeniable allure to stacking statement glassware, vintage martini cocktail shakers and Art Deco decanter sets atop your fully stocked mid-century modern bar cart. And one size or style doesn’t fit all — an evolution of cocktail cart design throughout history has yielded all manner of metal bar carts, rattan carts and more.

We invite you to add a few more dashes of class to cocktail hour — peruse the vast collection of antique and vintage carts and bar carts on 1stDibs today.
