Offered by: Fireside Antiques

Description
Dimensions: 29 ½” H x 17 ⅝” W x 17 ¾” D

A French mahogany and gray marble rafraîchissoir table from the late 19th century. Functioning like a bar cart or dry bar, this occasional table is adapted to keeping beverages cold by placing them in removable, galvanized ice buckets set flush within the marble surface. This example uses two buckets to the left side, leaving space on the marble surface to the right side for preparing one’s drink. The small drawer in the apron is perfect for storing bar tools and cocktail napkins. Gorgeous turned legs support two lower shelves for additional storage and display surface. Cleaned and polished with a French paste wax, this occasional table is ready for your next dinner party. Please view the detailed images.
