Brass tea or bar cart or trolley by Svenskt Tenn, Sweden, 1950s.
A delicate, decorative piece with a tubular brass frame, wooden handles and perforated brass trays; the top tray has a glass liner and is removable. The brass front wheels are protected by self-toned rubber tyres.
Overall the piece is in very nice condition, with minor signs of wear as one might expect from a piece of its age. A nice example of Scandinavian Modern design with good patina to the unpolished brass.
