Wine barrels not only make good planters but are good for other things like clocks, serving trays, shadow boxes, fake winery of barrel(s) hanging on the wall.... well you get the picture. We can turn a barrel end into something you'd like or your can have the satisfaction of making it yourself.
RECYCLED: These rustic wine barrel ends still have the barrel rack marks and stains proudly showing their years of service. All this adds a special touch for those who are sensitive to ecology and recycling.
OPTIONS: Choose from about 4-6" high, 7"-9" high (sold out) and 10-11" high (sold out). Since the barrel end is cut from the barrel, and depending how you plan to use it, the stave pieces might get loose as the wood can shrink and expand with the weather. So, we offer the option to add some screws in the top hoop and screws in every stave for the bottom hoop to keep the end tight for a long time. For a more refined look, we can sand and finish the barrel, even so, there will still be some remaining marks and stains. If you desire this, add sanding and medium walnut oil to finish the barrel.
- Screws in both hoops to keep it tight.
- Sand and Oil Medium Walnut
Please note that although the same care and quality is put into all of our products, there will be natural variation due to the wood selection (either French or American white oak), wood figure, winery or cooperage markings, wine stains from the inside of the barrel, and other factors. No two pieces will be identical and each has its own story to tell!
