Wine Racks Blog

Scroll Wine Rack, light of my life, fire of my counter top. My organizer, my sole rack. Scroll-Wine-Rack: the tip of the tongue taking a trip of three steps down the palate to tap, at three, on the teeth. Scroll. Wine. Rack. It was metal, plain metal, in the morning, holding three bottles in one easy embrace. It was a wine rack in the kitchen. It was a serving rack in the dining room. It was the Wine Rack with Scroll work by Spectrum - 480-10 on the dotted line of the catalog. But in my wine cellar it was always Scroll Wine Rack. Did it have a precursor? It did, indeed it did. In point of fact, there might have been no Scroll Wine Rack at all had I not loved, one summer, an initial wine holder. In a princedom by the sea. Oh when? About as many years before the Scroll Wine Rack was designed as my age was that summer. You can always count on a wine rack blogger for a fancy prose style. Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, exhibit number one is what the seraphs, the misinformed, simple, noble-winged seraphs, envied. Look at this tangle of thorns. Look at this Scroll Wine Rack.

Have you been looking for a stainless steel wine bottle holder to fit your modern kitchen? Me too. It seemed to be a losing battle for a long time, and I’d basically given up the dream. I mean, after a time, you have to compromise - that’s just part of being an adult. But then I realized that I DIDN’T have to compromise - there would be a way to actually have it all! And I had that realization when I saw this Stainless Steel Wine Bottle Holder by Blomus!

Yeah! It looks like some cool futuristic paperclip!

Add a slice of dynamic style to your home’s decor with the timeless, tasteful design of stainless steel! This wine bottle holder is a delight to behold — the perfect way to add luster and drama to your favorite bottle of vino. The bright, easily maintained surface of stainless steel provides a modern and attractive appearance. And remember, the chromium content of stainless steel allows the formation of a rough, adherent, invisible, corrosion-resisting chromium oxide film on the steel surface. If damaged mechanically or chemically, this film is self-healing, providing that oxygen, even in very small amounts, is present! And with proper care, it has a useful life expectancy of over 100 years, and it is totally recyclable! That means this stainless steel holder is worth its weight in gold — a marvel to feast your eyes on, and a value to last a lifetime.

You guys, I have a confession to make. I have sort of a schizophrenic design aesthetic. My ideal house would be 40% Eames mid-century modern-chic, 50% of the Elephant Room where Nicole Kidman lived in Moulin Rouge, and 10% Hello Kitty. Balancing these styles - well, it is my burden. Yet, bravely, I persevere! And the good thing about having eclectic taste (yes, that’s what I’ve decided to call it) is that when I find something that speaks to one of my design personalities - it doesn’t speak with a whisper, it shouts! And man oh man, this Wine Knot is screaming my name. I love the smooth curves, and the two-tone bent plywood. It’s hard to find a wine rack that looks good both empty and full, but this one totally fits the bill.It holds six wine bottles, and it can hold a magnum of champers in the center. Obviously, it’s speaking to the mid-century modernist in me (although I could embellish it with a little glitter and gold paint, and really reach a happy medium). What’s the verdict? Do you love it, or really love it?
