About the Item

Spectacular and unique Victorian serving bar trolley, dating to the early 1900s (circa 1900–1910), of English origin. Fully original and beautifully preserved. The trolley features an elegant and well-balanced solid mahogany structure, distinguished by its gracefully flared uprights and refined proportions, showcasing the high level of craftsmanship typical of late Victorian production. The design is enriched by beautifully shaped wooden handles, carefully carved to offer both functionality and visual harmony. The two serving tiers are defined by softly rounded edges and corners, an elegant detail that lightens the overall appearance while enhancing its refined character. Both shelves retain their original antique crystal glass panels, remarkable for their subtle waviness and warm tone, which further attest to the authenticity and age of the piece. Mounted on its original metal castors, the trolley is both practical and visually light, combining sturdiness with elegance. The understated yet sophisticated design reflects the transition from Victorian richness toward a more functional and modern aesthetic. A highly decorative and collectible piece, perfect for elevating a classic, Edwardian, or refined contemporary interior, and an exceptional example of early 20th-century English furniture.

Midcentury Cesare Lacca Wood Italian Bar Cart with Serving Trays, 1950s

Midcentury Cesare Lacca Wood Italian Bar Cart with Serving Trays, 1950s

By Cesare Lacca

Located in Roma, IT

Fantastic mid century wood bar trolley. It was produced by Cesare Lacca in Italy during 1950s. This wonderful piece comes with two glass removable trays and an ergonomic bottle rack. The lines of this piece make it perfect for a midcentury-style dining room or bar. Born in Naples in 1929, Italian architect-designer Cesare Lacca created modernist furniture and metalwork throughout the 1950s. Though details of his personal life and professional training remain lost to history, there are sufficient surviving primary sources that document his many elegant designs in brasswork for which he is the best know and which fetch high prices from collectors. Like many Italian designers in the 20th century, Lacca moved to Milan after World War II to launch his career. Before he was even 21 years old, his work was selected by a group of American curators for inclusion in the landmark exhibition Italy at Work: Her Renaissance in Design Today that toured 12 US museums between 1950 and 1953—the first major exhibition of Italian design outside of Italy. The exhibition showcased the best and brightest of Italian designers who had embraced modernist principles and rejuvenated traditional Italian crafts, like Carlo Mollino , Franco Albini, and Gio Ponti In the exhibition catalogue, curator Meyric R. Roger’s spotlights Lacca's expert achievements in brass, noting “the variety and quality of his creations,” which “place him high among the architect-designers leading the current [Modernist] movement." Rogers adds, "The quality of his work...provide[s] all the decorative effectiveness needed without strain or exaggeration”. Lacca designed a great many tea carts and serving trolleys in his career—which make up a large proportion of what is available on the vintage market today—as well as magazine racks and coffee tables. Lacca’s most iconic tea cart was manufactured by Italian brand Cassina and features sculpted beech, cedar, teak, or walnut with brass details, a glass tabletop, and a removable glass tray. Lacca also designed high-backed lounge chairs, which were regularly featured in Arredoluce advertisements for Angelo Lelli’s lighting...
