-
Description
A rare and stunning example of Danish craftsmanship, this Captain’s Bar by Reno Wahl Iversen for Dyrlund encapsulates the elegance and ingenuity of Mid-Century Modern design. Crafted in richly grained teak, the bar boasts a compact form that unfolds into a generously scaled serving surface with black laminate tops and signature brass hinges. The clever design reveals a multifunctional interior featuring cubbies, drawers, and shelving ideal for bottles, glassware, and tools—combining utility with sculptural appeal.
Details like dovetail joinery, warm brass hardware, and the pristine patina of the wood showcase Dyrlund's commitment to quality. Whether used as a showpiece in a collector’s space or as a functional bar in a modernist home, this piece delivers both rarity and refinement.
