Bordeaux Wine Cupboard

This is the kind of piece that tells you exactly where it’s from before you even ask. Found in Avignon and dating to the 1930s, this wine rack is stamped Beaujolais across the top, a name that would have been instantly recognizable in any French home, referencing one of the country’s most prolific and widely consumed wine regions just north of Lyon. By the early 20th century, wine had become part of daily life across France, not just for special occasions but for the table, and pieces like this were made to store bottles within easy reach. The structure is straightforward and built for volume, with scalloped racks cut to cradle each bottle, a small drawer below for tools or corks, and that open top shelf for whatever was being poured that evening. Sylvie plants this in a dining room or kitchen where it does exactly what it was made to do.
