Serving trolley - Hollywood Regency / Neoclassical / Mid-Century Modern

Splendid and elegant vintage Italian bar cart / serving trolley dating from the 1960s, a perfect example of Hollywood Regency style and the renowned artisan tradition of Sorrento inlay craftsmen. Key features and premium details: • Drop-Leaf Extensible Surfaces: The top shelf is equipped with two side flip panels with recessed hinges. They allow transforming the cart from a compact hexagonal/rectangular shape into a wide oval top. • Sorrentine Geometric and Floral Inlay: Both levels feature refined central floral motifs handmade with woods of different species and tones, framed by a complex geometric perimeter Greek key. • Golden Brass Finishes: Filigree protective railings and finished along the edges of both shelves, three elegant integrated bottle racks on the lower level, and a sturdy ergonomic handle for pushing with decorative supports. • Spoked Wheels: Equipped with two large decorative rear spoke wheels in a carriage-style, and two smaller 360° front swivel wheels that ensure stability and ease of movement. • Period: 1960s (1960-1969) • Country of origin: Italy (Production attributable to the Sorrento area) • Style: Hollywood Regency / Neoclassical / Mid-Century Modern • Materials: Fine wood (various species for inlays), worked brass • Conditions: Excellent vintage condition. The wood retains its original luster; the brass shows a slight and charming patina of time attesting to its authenticity (no breaks, missing parts, or structural damage). The wheels are fully functional. A professional custom packaging will be carried out, with appropriate material, given the delicacy and partly-dismantled state to ensure integrity during transport.
