Brazilian Modern Bar Cart in Hardwood by Sergio Rodrigues, 1962, Brazil

The bar cart has a beautiful design bringing elegance and innovation to any interior space. In matter of style, this bar cart effortlessly flexes into any Mid-Century Modern, modern, Danish modern or contemporary environment. This piece would also look wonderful in a boho chic environment.

This piece has all the fun aspects of a true bold Mid-Century Modern piece — clean, angular swooping lines that give the piece an almost googie look that is unmistakably Mid-Century Modern.

Sergio Rodrigues was a Brazilian furniture designer and architect. Born in Rio de Janeiro in 1927, he studied architecture and worked in various design fields before founding his own furniture company in the 1950s.

Rodrigues was known for using traditional Brazilian materials like wood and leather in his furniture designs, which gave his pieces a distinctly Brazilian aesthetic. He also drew inspiration from Brazilian culture and history, incorporating elements like the curving lines of Brazilian architecture and the colors and patterns of indigenous art. Additionally, he often looked to the natural beauty of Brazil for inspiration, using organic shapes and textures in his designs. Overall, Rodrigues’s work reflected his deep appreciation for his country’s rich cultural heritage and unique artistic traditions.
