Wine carrier on an outdoor table with a wine bottle and flowers

Unique Gift Ideas

Designed for Everyday Joy (and Special Moments)

 
At its heart, this wine carrier is built to cradle a standard 750ml wine bottle (the most common size—think your favorite red, white, or sparkling). The tall, cylindrical shape provides secure support, while the rotating leather-wrapped handle adds thoughtful convenience:
  • Rotate it for easy bottle access when you're pouring or using it as a vase.
  • Rotate it to the top for a sturdy handle to carry your wine bottle.

Wine Carrier - Black Design The Taylored Collection

Yes—you read that right. Once the wine is enjoyed, add a standard 3"x 10" glass vase, and transform it into an elegant flower vase. The natural texture and subtle patterns make fresh blooms pop, whether you're displaying wildflowers from the garden, a simple bouquet, or even dried stems for year-round charm.It's the ultimate multi-tasker: picnic companion, dinner party essential, countertop accent, or thoughtful gift.

Why It's the Ideal Housewarming GiftMoving into a new home is about more than boxes and furniture—it's about filling the space with warmth, stories, and intention. This handwoven wine carrier checks all those boxes:
  • Unique & meaningful: Unlike mass-produced items, each one carries the spirit of Ghanaian craftsmanship.
  • Practical yet elegant: Perfect for new homeowners who love entertaining or decorating with natural elements.
  • Versatile: Wine tonight, flowers tomorrow—no need for separate gifts.
  • Eco-friendly: Made from renewable elephant grass with fair-trade practices supporting artisan families.
Pair it with a bottle of their favorite wine (or keep it simple and let them choose), wrap it in reusable fabric, and you've got a gift that's thoughtful, sustainable, and memorable. Recipients often tell us it's one of those "I never knew I needed this" items that quickly becomes a favorite.

Care Tips for Lasting Beauty
  • Spot clean with a damp cloth as needed.
  • For vase use: simply add dried or artificial stems and arrange as desired. If using fresh flowers, a glass insert is needed to hold the water. 
  • Avoid prolonged direct sunlight to preserve colors if your version has dyed accents.
