A graceful mid‑century Scandinavian modern two-tier serving trolley, crafted in the 1950s–60s by Ary Fanerprodukter Nybro. Featuring two teak trays that elegantly extend to increase the surface area, opening up to show a sleek formica surface in black. The trolley also has a bottom tier for storing additional items, making it as practical as it is stylish.
Details include stylistic vintage wheels (with gentle wear from age), beautifully preserved warm teak grain, and minimalist accents that reflect the clean, functional ethos of Nordic design.
Condition:
This trolley shows evidence of earlier, but seemingly quality repairs, which have aged alongside the piece. Due to wear over time, additional restoration was necessary. Some subtle repair marks remain visible, contributing to its authentic patina and character. Now in overall good restored condition, this remains a rare and functional example of mid-century craftsmanship. Black Formica in overall good condition with a few marks here and there.

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.
