Design Inspiration
Rooted in the refined elegance of the Louis XVI era, this tea trolley captures the Neoclassical spirit that defined late 18th-century French court furniture. Symmetry, restrained ornamentation, and architectural precision are its hallmarks — a graceful balance between utility and grandeur that has never gone out of style.
Materials & Finish
Crafted from solid mahogany in a deep, lustrous reddish-brown finish, the piece features a beautifully book-matched veneered lower shelf with a diamond parquetry pattern. All hardware — from the delicate foliate gallery rail atop the removable brass tray to the three decorative drawer plaques and the elegant acanthus-scroll corner mounts — is cast in solid brass with a hand-applied antique gold finish. Tapered, fluted legs terminate in polished brass sabots and swivel casters for effortless mobility.
Craftsmanship
Every detail is shaped and finished by Brass & Wood artisans in Egypt, who apply centuries-old joinery techniques alongside meticulous hand-chasing of each brass fitting. The result is a piece that reads as authentically period yet performs with contemporary durability.
Versatility & Function
Designed as a tea trolley, this piece transitions seamlessly into a bar trolley, a bedside étagère, or a collector's display stand. The removable upper gallery tray adds a layer of practicality, while the open lower shelf provides generous display or storage space.
