Wooden Double Wine Bottle Carrier Chest with Secret Compartment

A wonderfully atmospheric wooden double wine bottle chest, handmade in the style of an old travelling trunk with rich dark wood, brass stud detailing and a beautifully aged metal clasp. Designed to hold two wine bottles side by side, this charming French piece also features an unusual hidden angled compartment inside, perfect for storing letters, corkscrews or small treasures. With its curved top, sturdy carry handle and trunk-style construction, it has the romantic feel of an old vineyard picnic accessory or gentleman’s drinks case. A striking decorative piece for a kitchen, wine cellar, country house or bar cart. The wood has developed a lovely deep patina over time, with warm tones and characterful grain throughout. The brass-effect fittings and studwork give it a classic antique trunk appearance, while the divided interior remains practical for storing bottles securely. There are light signs of age and use consistent with a vintage item including surface marks, small scuffs and wear to the finish in places, all adding to its authentic rustic charm. The clasp works well and the chest displays beautifully. Wine bottles and glasses are not included. In centimeters and kilograms: • Height: 35.5 cm. • Diameter: 23 X 12 cm. • Weight: 929 g.
