Art Deco Bar or Display Cabinet in Black Glass and Chrome

Art Deco bar or display case, a “Vitrine” as it is called in France, fashioned of chrome with black lacquer, glass, and mirrors that is the perfect way to show off some special bar accouterment or a  collection. There is plenty of storage in the cabinet below while it highlights the objects inside on glass shelving. The mirror top makes a great surface for serving or display.

The top opens with additional inside storage. Would mix with many Art Deco styles, from streamline to Bahaus. A very practical piece of restored vintage furniture. Merchandising was an art form, and this piece from Argentina is an example of the type of upscale furnishing that was found in the very high-end shops of Buenos Aires between 1900 and 1940.
