<p>[QUOTE="DragonflyWink, post: 1685663, member: 111"]So the overall height is only 20", and the zinc liners appear to rest on supports, suggesting they're relatively shallow, perhaps 5" or 6" deep? Strikes me as rather shallow for a wine cooler, would suggest since zinc was and is often used for plants, that these were more likely intended as planters/jardinieres/fern stands, and wouldn't necessarily have to be planted, ferns or other potted plants could be placed inside and covered with moss for effect.
