Know before you buy
The rack is engineered so that when viewed from the side, the structural elements obscure the midsection of six bottles. This creates the visual effect that the center of the bottle has vanished, leaving only the neck and base visible.
The rack is designed to accommodate standard 750ml wine bottles. Due to the specific geometry required for the illusion, larger format bottles like magnums or unusually shaped sparkling wine bottles may not fit correctly.
The rack is finished with a Danish oil, which provides a durable, matte protective layer. You can keep it looking its best by occasionally wiping it down with a soft, dry cloth; avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or excessive moisture.
Yes, the rack is constructed from solid red oak and is designed to be structurally sound when fully loaded. At 8 pounds, it provides a sturdy base for your collection, though it should always be placed on a level, flat surface.
No, the Pinetti Wine Rack is designed as a freestanding tabletop or shelf piece. It is not equipped with hardware for wall mounting.
