1950's-1960's

Tiki Bar!


Hard to find the good 'ol ones straight from the Keys!

Amazing set with 5 chairs, one being the bartender's and that one needs work. The bent bamboo became unbent. All chairs need some twine rewound along foot rests but they work fine without. Bar's top could use some work or I would just replace it with a tile top etc. It is now pressed board with formica. There is a plug inside for blenders etc. and two really cool tiki bottle holders crates, as seen inside back.

Front of bar is amazing and beautiful and in excellent condition. The foot rest is very strong. The bar alone weighs approx. 125 pounds. The chairs are 3 green and 2 orange. WAYYYYY COOL!

This is a striking set!

One chair has an inch cut on the top, otherwise the rest are perfect on their cushions.

I have repaired the front top of the bar edge with new wood, as you can see the wood in the picture was 2/3 gone. The new wood looks great, but again, I would replace the top if you want perfection but it looks vintage as is.

68" long x 42" high x 22" deep

Chairs: 39-1/4"H x 15.5" round cushions
