Know before you buy

Yes, with a generous 5.5-liter capacity, the cooler is spacious enough to hold a standard bottle of wine alongside a significant amount of ice, or even multiple smaller bottles depending on their shape.
No, this design is open-topped. It is intended for easy access to your wine or ice during entertaining rather than long-term storage.
Because each piece is crafted by hand, there may be slight variations in the glass. These unique characteristics are a hallmark of artisanal quality and ensure that your cooler is truly one-of-a-kind.
