<p>[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 1881988, member: 84"]I've had this for awhile - I finally was able to get to it again after selling 6-7 bikes over the week-end and was once again able to get close enough to it to admire it again.</p><p>I think it may be handmade? Made of wrought iron or some kind of metal and judging by the lock/handle on the door - pretty old?</p><p>It holds 72 bottles wine safely (handle on door will take a key or padlock, wired sides + bars on back will keep anyone from sneaking a bottle out!) and measures 65.5" tall x 21.5" wide x 15" deep - and it's heavy!</p><p>I'm wondering if it's worth sanding it & then painting it (black with gold or white for the diamond accents on the top & bottom + the wired sides)</p><p>Can anyone tell me anything about it?

[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 1881988, member: 84"]I've had this for awhile - I finally was able to get to it again after selling 6-7 bikes over the week-end and was once again able to get close enough to it to admire it again. I think it may be handmade? Made of wrought iron or some kind of metal and judging by the lock/handle on the door - pretty old? It holds 72 bottles wine safely (handle on door will take a key or padlock, wired sides + bars on back will keep anyone from sneaking a bottle out!) and measures 65.5" tall x 21.5" wide x 15" deep - and it's heavy! I'm wondering if it's worth sanding it & then painting it (black with gold or white for the diamond accents on the top & bottom + the wired sides) Can anyone tell me anything about it? Is it old? Is it handmade (the wires on front, top & sides look like something off the back of a vintage refrigerator?) or are there others? I'm thinking/hoping I can get a pretty penny for it? Thanks all PS - With all this time we're stuck in the house I've started selling the first layer of stuff laying around in piles that I've collected over the last year or so (with thrift stores being closed I can't go hunting & find new things everyday that I would end up putting on top of a stack - hiding the early stuff deeper & deeper!) so that leaves my old finds & so hopefully I'll be posting all kinds of cool stuff I've forgotten about!
