A Clever & Asymmetrical Design
A true living room sideboard-bar, this piece of furniture is structured into several zones designed for shared moments:
The Secretary Bar Corner (Left): A drop-front door opens to reveal an intimate bar space equipped with a glass shelf, ideal for preparing cocktails at a comfortable height.
The Display Cabinet (Right): Two original sliding glass doors open onto a large, two-tiered storage space (removable glass shelf). The back is adorned with a discreet graphic pattern, perfect for highlighting the transparency of carafes.
The Central Niche: A long open shelf runs across the lower part of the cabinet to display art objects, ceramics, or your finest mixology books.
The Tapered Legs: The cabinet rests on tapered legs typical of the era, enhanced by superb gilded brass sabots that accentuate its silhouette.
The Bottom Drawers: Two large drawers equipped with geometric gilded metal handles offer ample additional storage space.

💡 The Gallerist's Advice
"This piece of furniture was designed to be the focal point of a living room. Its blond wood loves contrasts: don't hesitate to pair it with colorful glassware (turquoise blue, emerald green, red) on its upper shelf to catch the light, just like in the photo! For a total retro-chic look, place a small graphic rug or a textured hide at its feet."
