A rare and visually stunning Italian-style hand-painted bar cabinet. This unique accent piece features classic mid-century Florentine or Venetian styling with hand-painted panels depicting 16th-century duelists and jesters. It is accented with ornate geometric borders and distinctive lion-head pull hardware.
