Liquor cabinet as a sculpted chest floating on an intricate metal net.

Not the public, noisy and disorderly alcoholic consumption of external night life, but the tasting of favourite nectars in a coterie of friends, opening the elegant bar chest in order to share stories as well as liquors and spirits.

MAI TAI, inspired by a cocktail of rare and exclusive ingredients that underline its exclusive craftsmanship, is the first in a line of bar furniture: an icon of the 50s, with the suggestive form of a sculpted chest hinting at Venetian splendour with flavours of the Orient. Liquor cabinet self-standing composed by shiny brass metal structure and a high gloss polyester lacquered cabinet. Off-white textured leather and antique mirror inside the cabinet hosting bottles and glasses. Ceiling hidden diffused LED light system. Wood cabinet also available in dark blue and dark green.
