This is a wooden bottle crate filled with SIX, French stoneware bottles. Perfect for rustic/country farmhouse kitchen displays. You will receive this complete set. This crate of bottles would look great sitting in the corner of a country kitchen, fill them with your own juices/homemade lemonade or home brewed beer. The two larger bottles stand 30cms/ 11¾" and 27cms/ 10½" tall and have porcelain stoppers, which still work perfectly, in spite of the slight degradation to the rubber seals. The other four bottles would once have had screw-top lids but now have "vintage" cork stoppers. Considering their age they are in great condition, the metal clasps are slightly rusty, and the rubber of the stoppers are starting to show signs of degradation, but this simply adds to their authenticity and charm. There are a couple of "nibbles" into the porcelain, consistent with their age and use. All the bottles themselves are undamaged, with no chips or cracks. All perfectly watertight. The four smaller bottles have lovely writing across their fronts, advertising their original liquor contents. There is: "Crème de Myrtille" (Blueberry), standing 25cms/ 11¾" tall (without the cork). It is embossed "0.7L" into the stoneware at the back. "Crème de Framboises" (Raspberry) and "Crème de Mûres" (Blackberry), standing 24cms/ 9½" (without the corks). They are embossed "0.5L" into the back, they have some very slight "wear" to the writing. "Framboise de Hautes Côtes de Bourgogne", standing 28cms/ 11"(without the cork), it is also embossed "0.7L" into the back.
The crate measures 34cms/ 13¼" long x 24cms/ 9½" wide x 22cms/ 8½" tall and is divided into six bottle compartments. Altogether this weighs 6.2kgs/ 13.6lbs.
Great for rustic, country kitchen and French provincial style interiors. Utterly charming.
