I have been installing more Wine Bars in the past few weeks, and I'm happy to report that all of the installations are doing fine, and they look great! I have made one design improvement, however: I added a 1/16" thick sheet of fine cork to the back of the wall bracket, where the bracket meets the wall.

This improvement is part of an ongoing pursuit of "heirloom quality" for all of Wine on Deck's products. While I have seen plenty of wall-mounted products, from mirrors to wine racks to shelves, I haven't seen many products that combine good looks with long-lasting mounting systems. I'm proud that the Wine Bar has achieved this difficult balance. But there is always more room for improvement. After all, heirloom quality might mean a product life of 150 years. But it could also mean a product that lasts for 1,000 years, or more. I strive for my creations to last as long as possible.
