The extraordinary skills of Porada’s best artisans are stressed in a unique piece of furniture created by the French designer Patrick Jouin: Mary modern bar cabinet.
This furnishing item is characterised by rounded and thin shapes. Its slender figure with a cylindrical shape, made of Canaletta walnut wood, is composed of two main parts. The base has a storage space equipped with a wooden shelf, while the four carved petals in walnut, assembled around an iced glass plate, give a total unexpected look to the central element.
When closed, this elegant bar cabinet subtly reveals its contents, while once opened, the interior compartment brightens up thanks to a USB-rechargeable led lighting with human presence sensor. Brushed brass details and backdrop add a touch of brightness to this cabinet.
