Description
This Bar is said to have been designed by Melchiorre Bega (There is no historical evidence of this - it was originally purchased from vetted New York antique dealer Fred Silberman through 1stdibs.com - he purchased it from an Italian Family Estate). The Bar is in Excellent Original Condition, except for the Stool Covers having been recovered in animal hide to enhance the animal motif of the Bar. The bar consists of 3 sections which fit together by a tiered shelf portion in-between and connected to the two main sections of the bar. The interior side of the main cabinets have open shelf portions as well as a closed double-door shelf section for storage. A fourth separate back wall cabinet, consists of sliding double doors for storage. A lower open display shelf is attached underneath the wall cabinet. 3 Bar Stools are included in the set. All cabinetry pieces have carved wooden animal figure applications on them. The Bar is made of Ebony, Walnut & Glass. We are told that Melchiorre Bega worked for Gio Ponti for a time in Italy. The Width of the Bar measures 6'. The Height of the Bar is 39 1/2". The Depth, including the L-Shaped Section, measures 4 Foot 2 Inches. Third-Party Freight Shipping or Personal Pickup Required.
