A striking mid-century drinks cabinet, thoughtfully repurposed from a larger bar set-up and now reinvented as a bold standalone piece. The design features elegant tambour doors on the upper section and smooth sliding doors below, creating a harmonious balance of texture and function.
The upper cabinet is large, spacious, and versatile, perfect for storing glassware, bottles, or decorative pieces. It also includes a wooden louver (at the back of the cabinet) built in for ventilation, making it practical for use as a drinks or storage cabinet. Its two-tone wood finish — dark framing contrasted with lighter slatted fronts — gives the cabinet depth and presence, making it a standout focal point in any interior.
Newly added wooden legs lift the cabinet from the floor, giving it a stronger presence and more refined proportions. The clean lines, warm wood grain, and functional storage make it an ideal addition to both contemporary and vintage-inspired spaces.
Condition:
Restored and repurposed, and in great restored condition overall.
Dimensions:
150cm W X 57cm D X 130.5cm H
Height of top opening behind the tambour doors: 59cm H

Note/Disclaimer:
Our images form part of the item/s description. Although every effort is made to refurbish our furniture to represent its original state best, it must be noted that most of the items we source date from the 1950s to the late 1970s. For this reason, and although restored, signs of their vintage condition & age might still be visible. We will normally point out any visible/notable concerns. Take note of all photos or view the item in-store prior to purchasing.
As with many Mid-Century pieces, this item features a thoughtful combination of solid wood and high-quality wood veneer. Veneer has a long and respected tradition in furniture making, valued for both its aesthetic and structural benefits. When crafted with skill and applied in substantial thickness, vintage veneer proves highly durable, allowing for careful restoration, including retouching, sanding, and refinishing without compromising the integrity of the piece.
