I have no idea about the original use for the metal frame that gives this piece it structure. There isn’t a right angle in it anywhere, so adjustments had to be made as I went along. The metal is finished with Protectol, and then with polyurethane to seal the rust. The wood is all scavenged and finished with multiple coats of polyurethane. Champagne caps were added for visual interest on the top. The bar is made to hold more than a dozen wine glasses which are included.
