Brazilian Modern Bar Cart in Hardwood by Sergio Rodrigues for Oca, 1962, Brazil
-
Description
Available today, this midcentury bar cart made in solid hardwood is stunning! The bar cart is composed of two doors for storage, two shelves with a bottle holder and four (original) wheels that work perfectly.
The bar cart has a beautiful design bringing elegance and innovation to any interior space. In matter of style, this bar cart effortlessly flexes into any Mid-Century Modern, modern, Danish modern or contemporary environment. This piece would also look wonderful in a boho chic environment
This piece has all the fun aspects of a true bold Mid-Century Modern piece -- clean, angular swooping lines that give the piece an almost googie look that is unmistakably Mid-Century Modern.
When we acquired this Brazilian Modern beauty, it was all covered in stickers as shown in the images. After purchase, we reviewed the Oca’s original manufacture manual and vintage publications to understand the piece’s DNA. Just then, we started the restoration process, and the product is what you see in the pics. The piece is in excellent condition.
Rodrigues's prolific ability to apply this type of tropical wood in different ways, always extremely original and creative made him one of the most important midcentury Brazilian designers.
