Wooden Wine Box Ends

These are original parts of boxes that wine is shipped & stored in. Alot of wine was packaged this way until cardboard boxes were introduced as a cheaper alternative.

Each box end has an engraved or embossed name of the wine it carried on it. Alot of them have the year and a picture on. Normally this is done in black but there are some rare ones that are in colour. These are ideal to hang as picture.

I have heard of many different ways people have used wine box ends

  • Wine seller decoration.
  • Around the home as plaques on walls
  • Art projects
  • Place mats for dinner tables
  • Cheese boards
  • Drink coasters
  • My wife even suggested i build our dogs a kennel from them. ( I did'ent)

Some of these box ends can be quite old. The oldest i have come across is from 1973 but there are older ones. As you can imagine after being shipped & stored around the world they end up with some general wear to them. I think this adds to the character and look of them.

They measure aprox 31cm by 17cm

A must for any wine enthusiast
