Vintage Bar Carts, what makes them so cool?

Vintage Bar Carts

Bar carts are cool and desirable. But why? The 50s-60s have always been a great inspiration because it had style. Who does not think back to this time with a big smile? What particularly appeals to us is the quality of times gone by. I love brass with glass and lucite because of this.

Bar Carts as Home Bar

Never been out of style however today the Bar Trolleys are extremely popular. Many houses today don’t have the space for a home bar, and a drink trolley is a perfect and flexible replacement. I always feel exited to decorate the Bar Cart and get it ready for guests. That brings me to another thing to consider before deciding to buy. How do you like to use it?

How to use

Firstly decide where you want to use it. Do you need height for use at the Dinner Table or a lower size to use next to the coffee table? My absolute number one Vintage Bar Cart is this Pierre Vandel. Produced in the 1960s and still modern. Ingeniously made. In Gold with Chrome and a small serving tray on the top shelf. If you want to move it around, this one rolls like a Royce.
