Overview +

Discover the epitome of rustic elegance and innovative design with Mystic Barrels' Half-Barrel Open Display Cabinet – a striking addition to any home or commercial space seeking a touch of authenticity and warmth.

Expertly handcrafted from genuine bourbon whiskey barrels, this unique piece tells a story, capturing the spirit and heritage of traditional whiskey-making.

The journey of the Half-Barrel Open Display Cabinet begins with a meticulous process: each barrel, rich with history, is carefully cleaned, sanded, and then skillfully cut lengthways to create its distinctive open display form. The back is flattened, allowing the cabinet to sit perfectly against a wall, with an option for secure wall mounting to ensure stability and safety.

Designed with versatility and functionality in mind, this exquisite cabinet features three robust shelves – the top, bottom, and a specially installed center shelf. These shelves provide ample space for showcasing your cherished whiskey bottles, glassware collection, or any treasures you wish to display. Its natural curves and textures bring an organic, inviting feel to any room.

Elevate your display with optional motion-activated lighting, casting a soft, ambient glow that beautifully highlights your collection, creating an enchanting display that captivates and delights. For a personal touch, customize your Half-Barrel Open Display Cabinet with an engraving on the top, making it a truly unique piece that reflects your style and stories.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the cabinet lighting work?

The lighting system includes two motion activated, rechargeable, magnetic bar lights. One light goes on the underside of the top barrel head, and the second goes on the underside of the cabinet.

The motion activated feature will detect the door opening or a hand reaching in and turn the lights on. The lights will automatically turn off after 20 seconds of inactivity.

(The lights can also be set to stay on if you'd like to keep them on for a few hours for a special occasion.)

To recharge, simply remove the lights from the cabinet and connect to the provided USB charger. With normal use, the lights will need recharged only a couple times per year.

How does the engraving process work?

After ordering with the engraving option, you will receive an simple online form to complete. Within the form, you will select which engraving design you would like and provide us with the names, dates, and any other content we would need for the design.

Alternatively, you can upload your own logo or design to the form for us to engrave onto the barrel.

After we have the design, we will send you a proof to review and approve as well as finalize the placement of the engravings on the barrel.

Once approved, we will engrave the piece and send it through the finishing process!

What stain color is used?

The standard stain color we use and showcase across our website is called Provincial. Its a rich, warm, medium-brown stain that works well in almost any application.

It brings out the beauty of the grain, allows some of the original character of the barrel to show through, and provides a nice contrast to the optional engravings.

Need a custom stain color? We can help! Reach out to our team to discuss.

Does the cabinet need secured to the wall?

It is standard practice and recommendation to secure all dressers, slim cabinets, and other furniture to the wall to prevent tipping. As such, we recommend securing these cabinets to the wall as well.

We provide all of the hardware and insturctions to secure the cabinet to the studs of a wall, or into drywall. If securing into a block, concrete, or brick wall, you'll need to obtain the appropriate hardware.

What size stools work best next to the Refurbished Barrels and Cabinets?

The Refurbished Barrels and Cabinets stand at 35 inches tall, which is considered "counter-height". (Same height as a standard kitchen counter or island.) 

Therefore "counter-height stools", which are between 24-26 inches tall pair best next to the cabinets!

Where is Mystic Barrels located?

Our shop is located in New Kensington, Pennsylvania, just north of Pittsburgh. Here, we transform used barrels into stunning furniture for your home or business. If you're in the area, feel free to stop by and visit us!
