GET RACKED

There are wine racks, and then there are, you know, WINE racks. This ribbon bottle rack by Alessi is part wine-bottle organizer, part art piece. Inspired by the Mobius strip, this storage shelf is crafted from a piece of polished stainless steel that makes it as pleasing to the eye as the wine it holds is pleasing to the palette. Well, almost.
