Description

Los Arabes of New MexicoAt the outset, Los Arabes (Arabic speaking individuals) were peddlers, carrying a variety of wares that often included exotic items from the Holy Land. These skilled cross cultural traders expected to strike it rich in the United States and then return to their homeland on the shores of the eastern Mediterranean. Some continued westward; others put down roots in immigrant ghettos in the East and Midwest or traveled back across the sea. A few, however,

At the outset, Los Arabes (Arabic-speaking individuals) were peddlers, carrying a variety of wares that often included exotic items from the Holy Land. These skilled cross-cultural traders expected to strike it rich in the United States and then return to their homeland on the shores of the eastern Mediterranean. Some continued westward; others put down roots in immigrant ghettos in the East and Midwest or traveled back across the sea. A few, however, decided to settle in New Mexico and fulfill the dream of owning their own business. The community grew quickly as family members, former neighbors, and hometown friends joined the original group. Why were they attracted to this area? What conditions in New Mexico facilitated their rapid and almost seamless acculturation? Hardworking, imaginative, and enterprising, Los Arabes of New Mexico became successful businessmen and prominent entrepreneurs, who enriched this state with their unique culture, their cheerful perseverance, and boundless enthusiasm. MONIKA GHATTAS was first intrigued by this topic while she was working on her PhD degree in European history at the University of New Mexico. She finally found the time to pursue this story after she retired from Central New Mexico Community College where she taught courses in European and Far East history for more than twenty years. Born in Germany, she has lived in New Mexico for more than fifty years and continues to be captivated by its vibrant culture and rich history.

Just perfect.
Style: 3 Tier Cart
This cart is beautiful, solidly built and accurately engineered. The gold color is soft and a bit pearlescent. This is very nice and the smoked glass is attractive. The assembly was easy although it took a minute to find the bolts, they are in the frame pieces and need to be removed. This was great because each screw was perfectly threaded. The entire thing was wrapped in bubble wrap and yards of strong tape. It took just as long to unwrap it as it took to build it. A few supports were bent, but were easily fixed with pliers. The finished cart moves smoothly on unobtrusive casters and the shelves don’t rattle because they’re supported by suction cups inserted into the frame. This is a substantial piece and will be very serviceable for entertaining.

Very Sturdy and attractive bar cart.
Style: Square Carts
I am very impressed with the quality of this bar cart. I purchased it for the appearance/styling of it. I looked at 20 - 30 bar carts and this one was the best fit to compliment my kitchen decor. I wasn't expecting the metal to be strong & sturdy, but it was. From the amazon photo, the metal frame looked lightweight and hollow. I also could not tell by the amazon photo if the gold matte finish would look cheap or elegant. I was very pleased with the finish. It was not the shiny brass type finish that I do not like. It was easy to assemble. A friendly F.Y.I. I spent a little bit of time looking for the assembly screws, expecting them to be in the bag with the wheels. They were screwed into the frame pieces which I think is a great idea when packing an item. It 's a good way of knowing that all the screws were sent and that they fit. I will note that because of the solidness of the frame, the delivered package might be a bit heavy for some. Also I found that using a drill on low speed with a star bit made the installation go very quickly.

Nice bar cart, Inaccurate shelf heights
Style: 3 Tier Cart, Style: 3 Tier Cart
Bar cart is nice, quite easy to put together. One of the most upsetting things is that the advertised/pictured 2nd shelf height is very wrong. It’s quoted at 18.1” tall but in reality it’s only 12.5”, the same as the bottom shelf - as confirmed in other reviewers photos. So half of my bottles have to go on the very top shelf. I reached out to the manufacturer about max shelf weight but they refused to give me an answer. I have about 30lbs+ on each shelf with the slightest bow in the center as there is only shelf support on the very ends.
