Description
Attributed to a mid-20th century workshop, this sculptural wine holder reflects a utilitarian object resolved with structural clarity. The inclined form is defined by horizontal hardwood slats that expand outward in a gentle arc, anchored by turned legs and reinforced with discreet metal brackets. A curved metal handle introduces a subtle counterpoint to the linear rhythm of the wood members.
Crafted from richly toned hardwood, the surface reveals a warm, expressive grain, while exposed fasteners underscore the honesty of its construction. The angled body secures bottles through gravity and balance, integrating function seamlessly into the overall composition.
In excellent vintage condition, with minor wear consistent with age, this piece exemplifies a disciplined approach to craft—where material integrity and purpose are articulated without excess.
