Impressive "barcart" or waitress made of goatskin and brass, Aldo Tura design. It is a side table or table cart with wheels, ideal for bringing plates or glasses closer to the meeting place, or simply standing next to an armchair or sofa. It has handles at both ends, as well as a comfortable bottle holder at the bottom.
This designer of experimental furniture was always involved and fascinated by artisanal manufacturing, with especially original materials and techniques, such as lacquered goatskin in this case. However, he always went beyond mere traditional craftsmanship, crossing the limits of exclusivity in his designs. An unusual and eye-catching piece that will become the center of attention of any interior. In very good condition for its age and use. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
