Original Philco Radio Bar Restored Complete Glassware. Bluetooth& Ebony Finish
Item #3641
The Art Deco Philco Radio Bar is a prized possession for aficionados of radios and bars alike. Originating amid the Prohibition Era, an era marked by a fascination with clandestine drinking establishments, its design reached its zenith in 1936. Within this exquisite piece lies an assortment of glassware, decanters, cocktail shakers, and various accessories, 33 pieces in total—a testament to the craftsmanship we proudly offer. Crafted by Radio Bar of America in Los Angeles, California, USA, this model, known as #536, hails from around 1936.
In our latest endeavor, we’ve elevated it to a new standard, meticulously restoring its interior and exterior. Adorned with a bespoke black ebony and silver finish, it exudes a timeless charm despite its ninety-year heritage. We’ve seamlessly integrated modern functionality, incorporating Bluetooth connectivity and additional inputs for seamless compatibility with contemporary devices such as smartphones and iPods. Its radio chassis has undergone thorough testing and restoration, and it is now equipped with a 1/8-inch adapter, enabling connectivity with a myriad of devices, from iPhones to record players. Whether indulging in vintage vinyl or streaming from platforms like Pandora and Apple Music, its Bluetooth connection ensures the rich, analog warmth of a tube amplifier enhances every note—a sound quality cherished by musicians to this day.
