Aldo Tura 1960s Swan Bart Cart in Parchment & Brass
Aldo Tura returned to the motif of the swan across several pieces, but perhaps none was as fully realised or as perfectly sculpted as this finely constructed cream parchment bar cart.
With a dappled surface, two levels in glass, brass hardware, and gilded spoked wheels, this hand-crafted design showcases the perfection of the swan-shaped sides for which Tura is known.
The tail of each swan is tipped in brass to form handles, leading down to the refined, harp-like curve of the body that connects the wheels and two glass tiers, looping into the graceful neck and head of a resting swan on each side.
Dimensions:
eight: 27.96 in (71 cm)
Width: 31.89 in (81 cm)
Depth: 22.45 in (57 cm)
Location: Gallery Lex 200, New YorkDesign Center, 200 Lexington Av
