Used historically in French vineyards and cellars to transport champagne bottles, this crate carries the honest wear and patina that only time can create.

Constructed from thick, hand-hewn wood boards, the crate shows age-appropriate surface wear, nail heads, and softened edges from decades of use. The faded red stenciling adds visual interest and reinforces its utilitarian vineyard origin.

Today, this piece makes a striking decorative storage box—perfect for firewood, blankets, wine bottles, magazines, or as a sculptural accent in kitchens, wine rooms, or living spaces. It works beautifully in European country, rustic, industrial, farmhouse, and grandmillennial interiors.
