Finding the Right wine-coolers for You
Antique and vintage wine coolers can be integral to keeping your drinks refreshing. They’re also a fun finishing touch for any cocktail party. Alongside your luxury barware, crystal tumblers and eye-catching decanters, don’t you want to show off an Art Deco wine cooler at your holiday get-together?
The desire to chill wine and other alcoholic beverages dates back to the ancient Greeks and Romans. With no refrigeration, these civilizations relied on snow and ice to keep their drinks cold. The original wine cooler was the psykter, a mushroom-shaped Greek vase that could sit in a krater of ice water or snow. The popularity of cold drinks has persisted across centuries to the medieval era and the present day. The wine cooler has evolved through time to meet these tastes.
Vintage wine coolers come in a range of forms and materials. These wine coolers echo the aesthetics of their eras beautifully, whether they’re fashioned from silver, glass, crystal or ceramic.
On 1stDibs, find a wide variety of wine coolers to browse, with hundreds of vintage and antique designs in a range of styles that includes Art Deco, Regency, mid-century modern and more.
