1980s Postmodern “Curvaceous” Aluminum Bilevel Bar Cart — Fully Restored, Attributed to Woodard
This striking two-tier bar cart from the 1980s embodies the bold curves and sculptural elegance of postmodern design. Attributed to Woodard, a renowned American metalwork furniture maker, it blends artistry with functionality—ideal as a statement piece in a lounge, dining area, or cocktail corner.
Restoration & Condition: This cart has been fully restored to showroom quality. The aluminum frame was stripped of its original paint, carefully sanded, and professionally powder-coated to achieve a durable, flawless finish. All four wheels and wheel sockets have been replaced with exact-matching new components, ensuring smooth mobility while preserving the authenticity of the design. The glass shelving is original, carrying only minimal, age-appropriate surface scratches, which serve as a subtle reminder of its vintage heritage.
Design & Features:
Dimensions: 36″W × 21″D × 32″H — generously sized yet compact enough to suit modern interiors.
Material: Lightweight but sturdy aluminum, now powder-coated for longevity and refined sheen.
Structure: Signature “curvaceous” silhouette, with flowing postmodern lines across both tiers.
Functionality: Two-level design allows for elegant serving and practical storage.
Historical Context: Woodard, founded in Michigan in 1866, built its reputation on hand-crafted wrought iron and cast aluminum furniture. By the mid-20th century, the company was a leader in American metal furnishings, celebrated for merging durability with style. This cart, designed during the expressive postmodern era of the 1980s, reflects the design philosophy of the time—fluid, playful, and sculptural—departing from the rigid minimalism of earlier decades.
