This bottle holder is not a simple table accessory, but the perfect meeting point between functional design and evocative details. We start with elements in solid larch wood, chosen for its characteristic warm grain and natural strength, and craft it to create a solid and suspended geometric structure.

The design of this wine and glass display is characterized by unique details: the central vertical element is naturally dyed using real grape must, a direct connection to the earth and wine culture. This color insert creates a sharp contrast with the natural tone of the larch, making each piece a unique specimen. The base features a beautiful hand-burned quote, which can be customized to feature a bespoke dedication, a private thought, or a memorable date.

​

Finish and Functionality

For this piece, we chose treatments and details that combine daily practicality with an understated aesthetic:

• Straw-Yellow Oil Finish: The wood is nourished and protected exclusively with straw-yellow oil (olio paglierino), a traditional treatment that preserves its matte appearance, enhancing the natural grain without altering its original color.

• Practicality: The structure safely accommodates one bottle and two suspended glasses. On top, a practical metal ring hanger (optional) makes it easy to carry to the table, making it perfect both as a dynamic centerpiece and as an original gift idea for wine lovers.

Note on the hand-burned quote:

The standard quote reads: "Siamo tutti mortali fino al primo bacio e al secondo bicchiere di vino" ("We are all mortal until the first kiss and the second glass of wine") by Eduardo Galeano. This phrase can be customized with a bespoke dedication, a private thought, or a memorable date.
