Sit In A Barrel Of Wine

Reminiscent of a steamer deck chair, this folding barrel stave chair is made form salvaged 70-gallon oak wine barrels. When folded, the slats nest alongside one another, making the chair as flat as a comma: you can take it anywhere. Individually numbered with the name of the winery branded under the seat. Looks as good in the house as it does on the lawn.
