Description

One of the finest vintage 1930's Art Deco cocktail cabinets available in the nation.  Large and expansive ... with exceptional storage and display amenities make this cabinet extremely desirable.
 
Swathed in a gorgeous bookmatched Burl Walnut on the exterior and a highly desirable Quartersawn Birdseye Maple in the bar service area. The cabinet features a special bar service mechanism - featuring what we call a "triple mechanism movement" - when the drop down bar service door is lowered the interior bar service moves outward and upward at the same time, and the lid flips up. The original lamp automatically illuminates at the same time. It is a very engaging bar service movement that mesmerizes people when they see it in action. It is a very fluid motion.
 
There are two very eye-catching barware storage and display sections on the far left and right of the cabinet. The original reverse etched starbursts are seen on the respective bevelled glass doors to the display sections. The display interiors are lined in plate glass mirror with glass shelves and are illuminated with infinitely variable remote controlled LED lighting that create a dazzling result. An ample black felt-lined bar service drawer is located immediately underneath the bar service area.
 
The very large bottom liquor storage area located behind the two bottom doors provides an extremely ample amount of storage. This section is lined in plate glass mirror and has three level touch-control LED lighting that operates separately of the side display sections. The original two-tone Bakelite pull-down handle with marbleized finish and two original knobs are in perfect condition.
 
This piece has been carefully hand stripped and refinished to an exceptional mirror-like high gloss using Deco-Dence's trademark Italian polyester finish that is totally water and alcohol impervious and extremely resilient to bumps, bruises and scratches. 
 
Our Italian finish is world-class ... found on the interiors of private jets, yachts, and motorcoaches and on only the highest end pieces by luxury cabinet makers such as Dakota Jackson and Brueton.  With just a little TLC your Deco-Dence piece will look absolutely fabulous for decades and decades to come ... providing on ROI unmatched by any Gallery!
