The story

This rare and beautiful bar cart was made by Jacques Adnet for La Compagnie des Arts Français in the early 1940s. It carries with it the elegant mood of the art deco period, especially with its bold, modern use of beechwood and brass. It’s set on functioning wheels and has 2/3 surfaces with two retractable shelves on each side and a drawer. A rare find, fully restored, in a great vintage condition. Jacques Adnet imbued the piece with his signature geometric flair with simple, clean shapes.

About Jacques Adnet

Jacques Adnet (1900-1984) was a French architect and designer who directed the Compagnie des Arts Français from 1928-1959. His modernism combined chrome, glass and mirror with fine woods and, most famously, furniture covered in stitched saddle leather, a style associated with his work with Hermès. He also designed lighting and interiors for public and private clients. Collectors look for leather clad pieces and lighting of the 1940s and 1950s.
