ABOUT PRODUCTID 17115
This French bar cart from the early 19th century is a rare specimen of neoclassical Empire-era craftsmanship, constructed from solid mahogany and adorned with bronze and brass details.

The sides and top are glazed with hand-pressed, subtly waved glass panels, set in finely crafted wooden frames. The lower shelf, in a slightly darker tone, bears gentle evidence of natural wear. Decoration is restrained—absent are any inlays or carvings, with the purity of form and refinement of material drawing focus.

Its mahogany surface, touched by two centuries of gentle sheen, evokes a story of hospitality and the French art de vivre. The hand-formed glass diffuses light
