A brief history of wine racks
The humble wine rack may seem like a modern invention. However, its origins lie in Egypt thousands of years ago. When Egyptians made the first iteration of wine, they stored the liquor in clay pots that were stacked in a tower-like system.
As the farming of grapes for winemaking spread across the globe, the storage of the crop needed more consideration. Wine was first stored in caves as it was cold and atmospheric conditions were favourable. When it was discovered that wine was best stored in glass bottles, the wine rack that we have come to love today was invented. Now, antique wine racks made from wrought iron, metal and wood are highly sought-after as they each have a unique provenance and can be repurposed to be used in modern homes for favourite tipples.
