Carrying Case For Wine Tasting In The 18th Century
A true collector's item, this 18th-century polychrome wooden transport crate was used for wine tasting and was often found in estaminets. Forged hinges and fittings, a working key, and a mechanism that opens and closes a drawer on the front make this a particularly well-crafted object. Inside, you'll find the blown, thick glass bottles and their glasses used for tasting, all compartmentalized in the case; an object that tells a little-known story.
