Forge Bar Cart

The bar cart that holds the light as well as the bottles.
There are bar carts that carry the evening and there are bar carts that define it — that bring such considered material depth and quiet architectural authority to the room that the gathering finds its centre before the first glass is poured. The Forge was designed to be that centre. Three circular acacia wood shelves sit within substantial matt black metal ring bands — the warm reddish-brown of the timber against the deep black of the metal creating the material contrast that gives the piece its drama — while slim vertical glass rods run between each tier in place of solid uprights, catching the room’s light and refracting it between the shelves in a way that makes the Forge as much a lighting object as a bar cart. The entire piece reads as a cylindrical tower — architectural, considered, and entirely confident in a form that references the barrel, the lantern, and the column in one resolved composition.
Acacia carries the warmth and distinctive grain of honest Indian timber across three generous circular surfaces — the grain flowing across each shelf in a way that makes the glass rods appear more luminous for the warmth they frame. Matt black metal ties every ring, band, and gallery rail together with the structural precision of a piece that knows its own authority. The glass rod columns are the Forge’s signature — the transparent elements that transform a bar cart into an object worth looking at from every angle, at every hour, whether the bottles are on it or not. A bar cart designed in India, for the home that understands the most considered evenings are always the ones served from the most extraordinary piece.
