Portable mid century bar in a barrel — so cute!

Pam Kueber - March 26, 2019, Updated: March 26, 2019

portable bar that looks like a barrelJust some happy this morning: A vintage mid century portable rolling bar — that looks like a barrel when it’s closed! Spotted at Retro Genie’s  in Northampton (one of my all-time favorite vintage stores!) a while ago.

Adorable! Great mid century portable bar for a small space — and as a conversation starter, to be sure!

    This has nothing to do with the Barrel, but enjoying my Sunday morning visit on your site, I thought: Did you ever finish your Tiki lounge? and were there pictures of the finished result.?
    I was following the transformation, but do not remember seeing it in all it’s finished glory.

    Wow, this is super cute! It looks like it could work well with both a Tiki or Western themed room too.

    That’s fun. Do you know who made it? A manufacturer, or was it an inspired person’s one-off creation?

      I don’t recall seeing a label on it. Usually if I do I photograph it.

      THAT’S why this reminds me of my Wisconsin German side of the family! Get-togethers always involved rolling out the barrel and polka! Now I want it
