A little different, but looks very similar to the base of this cabinet: [https://www.1stdibs.com/furniture/storage-case-pieces/dry-bars/large-impressive-industrial-ships-port-hole-bar-cabinet-mirrored-back/id-f\_9747321/](https://www.1stdibs.com/furniture/storage-case-pieces/dry-bars/large-impressive-industrial-ships-port-hole-bar-cabinet-mirrored-back/id-f_9747321/)


Trollaukin

I’m pretty sure this is it!!! Apparently the top part is elsewhere in the AirBnB. How did you find this?


str8outtabetacells

Awesome! I used Google Lens, and got lucky spotting one photo that had a similar pattern of rivets.


Trollaukin

So cool. Here’s a picture of the top elsewhere in the AirBnB: https://postimg.cc/0bzj44B7


TempestNova

lol, I was wondering how the top part would work elsewhere being rounded like that. Also the whole cabinet looks like a old timey spotlight, I wonder if that was the inspiration.


ensoniq2k

Potentially it was even a refurbishment of one. Furniture like that is commonly found in cities with big havens like Hamburg


social_elephant

That’s a damned expensive piece of furniture for an Airbnb


ttaptt

Amazing. This is one of my favorite subs. You crushed this one!!!


RedditsAdoptedSon

ohhh theyre rich rich..


Rubcionnnnn

Yeah they own at least 100% more homes than necessary.


ziguziggy

Yea 6k later....


Neinstein11

Offtopic, but god damn that Airbnb owner is dedicated if they bought a 6000€ cupboard in it That or you must've paid a fortune too


TalkingMrTree

[Arhaus,](https://www.arhaus.com/products/iron-bar-cabinet?variant=40869148098731) which has stores in several states, has it on sale for $2899.


mseuro

In the middle of arstreit


Romecat

That's Madness! Madness, I tell you!


Double_Belt2331

I’m sure it’s a very, very fine place


Trollaukin

Solved!


dontcrashandburn

And a steal at only $6000! That's why they're all sold out.


adamsomebody

Yep this is it folks. Good find!


cottoneyedtoe

Sir, how did you find this


str8outtabetacells

Google Lens, and some patient scrolling :)


Seite88

How on earth did you find this? Edit: nevermind. I've read the other comments. Great job.


Guygan

It has the distinct look of a custom made cradle from a factory or maintenance facility used to hold a piece of industrial machinery or component during assembly. Something VERY heavy.

May be a BDSM chair


jorgeorge06

Is the watermark supposed to be there?


Trollaukin

Yeah, my friend tried to post it with another account, but it wasn’t getting any views and it seemed like something went wrong. We are a group of 7 insanely curious about what it is…


povlov

Seven minds at ease now…, the answer within the house! The owner must have had a great budget for decoration.


Draano

7 minds, one person.


S0fuck1ngwhat

Those wheels do not look like they would support a proportional weight as the rest of the device to my completely untrained eye.


Technical-Silver9479

That's an odd thing. It's got fake rivets and real welds. My guess is it's just a piece of art


Riccma02

Faux industrial BS at its finest (and most expensive)


PinkCantalope

Looks like it could hold a steel drum for Caribbean music


matt_the_bass

Steel drums are typically held by sting from the edge, not rigid mounting.


PinkCantalope

Not in heavy metal Caribbean bands.


gabbagabbawill

Sting is from the Police and the Edge is from U2.


PimentoCheesehead

That was my first thought as well, but I can’t find anything that looks similar online.

Ya-Dikobraz

I think it's art, missing whatever globe or reflector thing it had on top.


Trollaukin

My title describes the thing. Found in our AirBnB in coastal Maryland. Extremely sturdy, has wheels and some kind of seat/back-rest.


RobertoPaulson

I’m going to argue against any industrial use, simply because of the fake rivets. They serve no purpose but to make it look heavy duty, and/or old.


Practical_District88

Looks like it would hold one of those huge spotlights


parkerm1408

I'm thinking this is some kind of custom fabrication for some kinda industrial work.


Anvildude

It looks almost like the frame of an overbuilt mobility device of some sort? Like, there'd be a seat put on that someone could get on or be placed on, to wheel them somewhere else?


Jaxthor

it appears to be a wheel chair


ravenrant

It could be a globe stand.

Horse saddle chair or holder?


Sufficient-Quail-714

Horse saddle racks have to have a bar to support the tree. Even if it was upside down this would damage any saddle.


cetootski

It looks like a customized movable cart for a whiskey barrel


wowimfunny

Saying that it's extremely sturdy makes it sound like you tried as hard as you can to break it


DanMarvin1

Something was bolted to it and then moved but I haven’t a clue what


RosealynnBelle

Maybe its an old tractor seat minus the parts to make it comfortable? Like someone took the frame from a tractor then set it up on this device to have as art or a rolling chair?


TheHearseDriver

We used assembly/transport frames that were very similar to this when I worked in the defense/ aerospace industries.

ATIR-AW

Based on the structure and reiforcements, it's meant to support something really, really damn heavy.


D83T

I started working at a place where they make farm equipment and they use something like this to insert a philght into a auger tube?but it's less appealing tho


spiderbro8

A forge table for armour maybe Hammering steel plates into shape for shields or such .
