Handcrafted 9 Bottle African Blackwood Wine Stand

£300.00

Description

Introducing our exceptional African Blackwood Wine Stand – a true fusion of sculptural form, exotic timber, and masterful craftsmanship. This nine-bottle wine display is a functional artwork, designed to celebrate the natural beauty of one of the world’s most luxurious hardwoods, paired harmoniously with the organic warmth of English Spalted Beech.

Standing 25½ inches tall, with a commanding 6-inch diameter and an elegantly curved silhouette, this piece sits gracefully upon a hand-finished Spalted Beech base measuring 12½ inches by 10 inches. Every curve, hole and edge has been carefully shaped and refined within our South Devon workshop, ensuring a flawless blend of proportion, stability and visual balance.

Exotic Beauty and Enduring Strength

The main stem of this African Blackwood Wine Stand has been meticulously carved from a solid piece of African Blackwood – a timber renowned for its exceptional density, deep ebony tone, and natural lustre. The tactile smoothness and mirror-like finish achieved through repeated sanding and oiling highlight the wood’s unique tonal variation, ranging from deep chocolate to jet black with subtle amber flashes.

This exceptional density allows for a high-gloss, silky surface rarely achievable in other hardwoods. It’s a material long prized by fine instrument makers and artisans alike – now reimagined here as a striking centrepiece for the modern home. Each bottle nestles securely by its neck into one of nine precision-drilled cavities, appearing to float gracefully as the stand gently leans upward in an organic, tree-like form.

The contrasting base is crafted from beautifully figured Spalted Beech, offering visual warmth and stability. The spalting lines and soft grain pattern bring a natural softness to the otherwise bold structure – a grounding element that complements the dramatic strength of the Blackwood.


A Unique Christmas Gift

If you’re searching for the ultimate Christmas present for a wine enthusiast or lover of handcrafted design, this African Blackwood Wine Stand makes an extraordinary choice. Each stand is completely one-of-a-kind, shaped by hand from individual pieces of timber, and finished to a level of artistry that mass-produced items simply cannot match.

Whether displayed in a contemporary apartment, a rustic home bar, or beside a dining area ready for festive celebrations, this elegant piece transforms any room into a space of warmth and refinement. It’s not just a wine stand – it’s a statement of sophistication, craftsmanship and timeless taste.
