Rosewood Expandable Bar Cart Cabinet by Niels Erik and Glasdam Jensen

About the Item

This Danish Mid Century expandable rosewood bar cart / cabinet, designed by Niels Erik and Glasdam Jensen for Vantinge Mobelindustri in the 1960s, is a paragon of Scandinavian design—where functionality meets the pinnacle of style. The beautiful rosewood facade exudes warmth with its rich, dark grain, providing a luxurious backdrop for the elegant silhouettes of barware and accessories. The cart's solid dovetail handles and legs speak to an era where attention to detail and quality of construction were paramount. Chrome and black castors add a sleek, modern touch, ensuring ease of movement for social gatherings or quiet evenings at home. The top surface, a resilient black laminate, is perfectly purposed for mixing cocktails, standing in striking contrast to the rosewood, providing both a durable work surface and a visual statement. Within the cabinet, a glass shelf and two sliding white painted partition dividers offer a sophisticated organization system, while solid rosewood rails ensure liquor bottles. glasses and bar essentials are securely stored. True to its functional elegance, the piece is designed to expand to 53.25 inches when fully open, revealing its full potential as a social centerpiece. While it retains its original condition, the piece bears minor signs of wear consistent with age and use. General wear to the laminate top and some paint loss inside the cabinet narrate the history of its service in social and private gatherings. Measuring 29 inches in height, 34.5 inches in width, and 19.75 inches in depth, this cabinet is stamped with the original maker's mark underscoring its authenticity. This bar cart not only promises to be a practical asset but also a conversation piece, embodying the timeless allure of Danish Mid Century design.
