Know before you buy
The cooler features a spacious opening designed to comfortably accommodate standard wine and champagne bottles. Depending on the bottle size and the amount of ice used, you can typically fit 2 to 3 bottles at a time.
The Astoria Champagne Cooler is specifically designed for indoor use. While the aluminum construction is durable, the antique finish is best preserved when kept away from direct outdoor elements.
To maintain the antique-finished aluminum, simply wipe it down with a soft, dry cloth after use. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges, as these can damage the hammered texture and finish.
No, this model does not feature handles. Because of its unique, sculptural shape, it is intended to be placed on a tabletop or sideboard as a stationary centerpiece.
This piece functions as a traditional ice bucket. Simply fill the interior with ice or a mix of ice and water to keep your wine and champagne at the desired serving temperature throughout your event.
