Art Uncorked
Make sure you keep the wine flowing at your holiday celebration
with ArtWalk’s selection of wine accessories.
The downtown Boone gallery offers blown
glass goblets, unique “hillbilly” wine glasses, wire cork cages, an assortment of handmade wine
stoppers, and more.
According to ArtWalk, “All of these items make great hostess gifts or
presents for the wine enthusiast in your life; a one-of-a-kind stopper or clever cork cage makes
for a great pairing when given with a nice bottle.”
To memorialize a particularly good
bottle of holiday wine, a scrollwork iron candelabra fits in the neck of an empty bottle, creating
a unique way to light and decorate the dining room table. Another unusual wine gift is a corkboard
made from recycled corks, or, for the lady wine-lover, a pair of earrings or a necklace made of
corks adorned with crystals and beads.
Other items include wine-themed wall art, as well as
hand-turned wooden wine stoppers, and whimsical globe-shaped cork cages.
