Happy hour has just been elevated!!! WOW!!! This is a wonderful teak expanding bar or cocktail cart designed by Poul Hundevad. It is versatile and fabulous! Use it as a two-tiered smaller cart or if you need a larger serving area, utilize the awesome expanding feature! The top tray is on a rail that slides the tray out to either side until it reaches the center, and the bottom tray lifts up and has a lip and grooves that hooks under the side of the top tray which creates a large serving space. It has four straight stunning cylindrical legs with brass plated caster sockets and metal hub casters. The wood grain and finish is absolutely gorgeous!! It is stamped, rolls beautifully, and has a quintessential Scandinavian Modern essence. It is a perfect way to offer your favorite cocktails, or if you prefer, you can load it with tea and desserts, coffee and donuts, or milk and cookies! Quite frankly its stunning just sitting there empty. Roll this Danish beauty into the room of your choice and get ready to serve your favorite beverages in impeccable style.
Poul Hundevad was born in Vamdrup, Denmark in 1917. He trained as a carpenter and, for a time, owned his own cabinetmaking shop and furniture factory. In the early 1950’s he founded & based Hundevad & Company in Vamdrup, Denmark principally producing furniture by himself and by Danish designers like Carlo Jensen, Kaj Winding, Harald Plum and Mogens Plum. In 1960, he began production of his most famous work, the Guldhøj chair, a design that was a direct copy of a folding chair found in a burial mound in Vamdrup that dated back to the Scandinavian Bronze Age. Over the years he designed many dining chairs, tray carts, sideboards, cabinets, trolley carts, and bookcases. Poul Hundevad was a quintessential Danish furniture designer. He looked to the past, stayed true to traditional craftsmanship and techniques, yet created pieces that were thoroughly modern. -VHB Great Danish Designers 101.
