As we get ready for our highly anticipated Furniture Festival and Clearance Sale at the end of this month, we are thrilled to announce that Bar U Topia will be hosting a showcase of their products and craftsmanship. Led by visionary artist Christopher Price, Bar U Topia seamlessly blends innovation, tradition, and elegance into their collection of home entertainment bars, bath bars, and DIY bar kits, bringing the essence of entertaining and at home relaxation to Hickory Furniture Mart shoppers.
Discovering Bar U Topia
Established in November 2022, Bar U Topia is the latest venture of Christopher Price, a craftsman well-known for his manufacturing expertise at Fence Quarter, LLC. Drawing from his extensive experience in outdoor product manufacturing, Christopher developed bar prototypes that have since revolutionized the market. Bar U Topia’s bars are renowned for their distinctive curved design, lightweight yet durable engineering, integrated power cord chases, and a versatile range of accessories. These features, combined with customizable color options, allow customers to effortlessly transform their spaces. Committed to quality, Bar U Topia uses only the finest lumber and premium materials for countertops and leather panels, ensuring each piece is both stylish and durable.
The Artist Behind the Bar
Christopher’s passion for woodworking was ignited in 2011 when he crafted his first nine-foot curved patio bar from scrap lumber. This tiki bar, adorned with reed accents and a lacquered bar top, became the highlight of a memorable party. The innovative design stayed with Christopher, and in November 2022, he turned his impromptu creation into a popular consumer product. The result is the DIY Home Bar Kit, a testament to his passion and craftsmanship.
Stunning Design & Local Craftsmanship
Local production is at the heart of Bar U Topia’s philosophy, with all their bars proudly crafted in Morganton, North Carolina, using local suppliers at every opportunity. This dedication to American manufacturing underscores the company’s dedication to quality and sustainability. Christopher’s traditional woodworking skills, refined through years of creating sets and props for amusement parks and commercial shoots, are now devoted to crafting exquisite home entertainment and bath bars. By incorporating automation into their processes, Bar U Topia achieves economies of scale while maintaining the artisanal quality of every product.
