The top part of the L-form bar features a cabinet with two interior glass shelves and the back wall is embellished with the original mirrored glass. The grooved front cabinet door is enhanced by two detailed ceramic décor pieces which are most likely designed by Federico Quatrain, same as the hardware. The lower part contains a single glass shelf with two smoked sliding doors. The curved counter is composed with a small drawer and a small cupboard. Two smoked sliding doors open to an interior glass shelf. The elevated arched marble top is supported by four polished arched brass legs. The counter is standing on two brass feet. Wear consistent with age and use. Circa 1940 - 1960, Italy.
