Questions & answers
Antique back bars: common questions
What is the difference between a back bar and a front bar?
The back bar is the tall cabinet against the wall, with mirrors, shelving and storage where bottles were displayed. The front bar is the counter where drinks are served. Many rooms use just a back bar; a full saloon installation pairs the two.
What should I measure before buying an antique back bar?
Measure the wall length, the ceiling height (the crowns on large back bars can be tall), the depth you can give it, and every door, hall and stair on the path in. Large back bars were built in sections, so ask how a bar breaks down and how big its largest section is.
Can I see an antique back bar in person?
Yes. The pieces on this page are at the Red Baron Antiques showroom, 872 Atlanta Street in Roswell, Georgia, open Monday through Friday from 9 am to 5 pm. Call (770) 640-4604 before you drive in so the team can confirm the piece is still on the floor.
How are antique back bars priced?
Red Baron prices each piece on request, because condition, provenance and what it takes to move and install it all matter. Call (770) 640-4604 or send an inquiry with the item number, and the showroom will get you a price.
Can Red Baron ship or deliver a back bar?
Shipping, delivery and installation are arranged piece by piece, depending on the size of the piece and where it is going. Send the item number and the destination, and the showroom will talk through the options with you.
