Bar Cart in Tropical Brazilian Hardwood, Contemporary Design
About
This tea cart or bar cart made of tropical Brazilian hardwood evokes the ancient ritual of making tea, which endures as one of the few things we cannot speed up. In our accelerated culture where instant connectivity has become the new standard, the process of brewing a cup of tea remains almost unchanged. If you want tea, you must wait. This simple fact feels almost like an act of social subversion, temporarily denying our thirst for instant gratification in exchange for a conscious, extended experience of the present moment.
A tea cart made from Freijó, local Brazilian wood and hand-hewn brass accents blends into residential and commercial settings with ease. Set of wheels, the cart can occupy a range of spaces and contexts. A side table here, a centerpiece there, the tea cart behaves as a subtle beacon to pause and reflect. The cart includes an upper and lower level. The lower level can be used for storage and decorative display while the top holds everything one needs for tea preparation. This level includes an integrated electric burner for heating the kettle (Cuisinart Stainless Steel Electric Tea Kettle), hidden storage for cups and tea, and a handsome brass tray for serving and presentation. Intended as a limited edition of 11 pieces, the tea cart stands as both a product and a graceful reflexion on contemporary life.
