The Savage drinks cabinet by KANTTARI is a bold exploration of craftsmanship, materiality, and sculptural form — a one-of-a-kind statement piece where luxury meets primal elegance.

Designed to provoke and impress, Savage redefines what a home bar can be. Its striking exterior evokes the texture of alligator skin, a metaphor for untamed beauty and strength. The intricate surface is brought to life through advanced 3D sculpting technologies combined with artisanal hand-patination and precision finishing. The result is a tactile, metallic skin that feels both wild and refined, blending the organic with the architectural.

When opened, Savage reveals a contrasting interior: soft lighting frames polished marble, weightless glass shelving, and green leather-lined drawers — all carefully composed to elevate the ritual of serving drinks. The visual drama continues in the smallest details: custom hardware, seamless craftsmanship, and a perfectly proportioned form that balances power with elegance.

This cabinet is not mass-produced — it is a singular piece, meticulously handcrafted by KANTTARI’s team of artisans in Latvia. The materials, design language, and construction techniques celebrate individuality and bold expression. This is a bar cabinet designed for collectors, creatives, and connoisseurs who seek objects with soul and stories.

Savage has already received international acclaim, including the London Design Award (2024, Silver) and Rome Design Award (2025, Gold). It was acquired by globally renowned artist Adam Lambert, whose fearless style and bold aesthetic align seamlessly with the piece’s expressive identity.

This project embodies KANTTARI’s mission: to create furniture that transcends function and becomes art. With Savage, the boundaries between object and sculpture are intentionally blurred, offering a design that is as commanding as it is unforgettable.
