Addendum: Please note this item is not of "Italian" manufacture and was instead purchased in England by the owner.

The bar we have the pleasure of offering from "Dillinger's Lounge" is a modern example purchased in Italy before being custom-assembled and built to the specifications of the space. Of oak construction, it is quite large, with the front bar section measuring 20 feet, 6 inches wide, 32 to 26 inches deep, and 44 inches tall, while the back section is 9 feet tall, 19 inches deep and also measures 20 feet, 6 inches wide. It features stained glass overhangs over the mirror glass sections and aftermarket illumination, as well as a center-mounted clock, carved figurines, "Thwaite's" lettering on the glass panels and a full brass step rail. The front section of the bar was custom fitted to accommodate a stainless steel restaurant grade cooler, two dishwashing sinks, and a main double sink and shelving, all of which will accompany the bar in its sale. It is in excellent condition and complete with a host of additional bar-related ephemera, including some modern beer and bar-related neon signs, as well as an entire Lucite protective sheet for the length of the wood bar top. Overall, this is a lovely piece that combines old world charm with modern functionality and durability. Also included in the sale of the bar are approximately 12 illuminated oak pillars measuring 48 inches tall and 22 inches wide. Each of the pillars feature a lighted glass globe. The removable pillars also include eight sections of 72 inch long metal and wood railing sections that were installed in the bar section of "Dillinger's Lounge." Please note that this lot will require professional removal from the premises at the buyer's expense. Prospective bidders are encouraged to inform themselves as to the logistics of said dismantling, its cost, and to speak with an RM Auctions specialist for further details.
