Also known as hedgehog drainers these originate from the vineyards of France where they were used to dry out the bottles before filling.

The rack holder is perfect for displaying and storing your favourite bottles, making it a great conversation piece at your next dinner party or would look perfect in a vintage kitchen cafe for displaying cups. These are sometimes used to hold shoes in a hallway. With its antique appeal and high-quality construction, this wine bottle dryer rack holder is sure to impress. It is an ideal gift for any wine enthusiast or collector of architectural antiques. This is in a used condition , it is 80+ years old, part of its charm is its rustic shape and patina. These are sometimes cut down and made from taller versions of bottle racks making them handier to use in smaller kitchens, this ones looks to be that type. The more modern ones are quite lightweight, this is an older one weighing a hefty 5.4kg! We buy all our stock in France from traditional brocante markets and as such all the items we sell are used or vintage and will show signs of a previous life. This is all part of their unique French shabby chic appeal. It is not always possible to show every minor scratch on a photo so if you are looking for new then these may not be for you. Any significant flaws are always highlighted in both photos and descriptions.
