This stunning trolley is probably the most iconic piece designed by Jorge Zalszupin and manufactured in his own company L’Atelier, Brazil 1959. The Carrinho de Chá or tea trolley originates from 1959 and is considered a timeless classic amongst collectors. The cart can be moved around freely and is built from various materials: a solid iron frame black painted, supports a large origami like bottom shelf. Another shelf sculpted out of solid jacaranda rosewood is placed on top and serves as a removable serving tray which can be used both sides. Two rather large but open brass wheels are placed at the bottom and are a great distinctive feature as the solid brass draws attention. A subtle stand with a small rotatable wheel and a solid wooden hand grip lies perfectly in line with the minimalistic approach and feel. This tea cart is kept as original as possible, the wood has been refinished but the black painted metal and brass wheels show a nice authentic patina.
