Come winter and all homes will be glowing with the familiar glow of the warm, cosy hearths in their living rooms. Now the deal is, which of these fireplaces will dare to be different from the rest vis-a-vis the design, functioning or even the eco-friendliness! Well, that’s a toughie. While you figure the big mystery, let us present to you the world’s first and only spherical wall-mounted fireplace. Called Cupola, this one comes from the same fellas at Vauni who earned kudos for the ‘Globe’ fireplace.

Back to Cupola, this beauty can be mounted on the wall just like a flat-screen TV. Not just flaunting a unique shape, this one displays a very superior technology too. The adjustable bio-ethanol burner lets you enjoy a very vent-less routine of hassle-free and safe flames.

I have a fad for crazy things that are functional in nature besides making a difference to the ambience via their silent presence. And now I got the additional third feature that makes them in demand today—they are antique. What a good feel it gives when one installs a globe that can house all your wine bottles and you flaunt it during all your parties.

Featured above is one such wooden globe bar that features world’s finest maple from Malaysia and Vietnam. The boundaries are hand-crafted with hand-highlighted countries via a variety of shades. Oceans are notified via hand-cut panels of maple fitted with exactitude. The 24k gold plated ribbons adds spark to the otherwise dull latitude and longitude lines. Unlike ordinary globe bars that depict old world cartography, these reflect current place names and borders.

Right at the equator, the globe unfolds to offer you the magic of a hidden wine bar with space enough to house bottles, glasses and accessories. It also offers additional area for storage on lower shelf. Its easy-roll casters make it portable to any place, so possibility is now whenever you plan to go for camping; this has to be your must take-away thing. Erecting an inspiring 42″ tall, this globe is ordained to become a valued heirloom. It measures 20″ (diameter) x 42″ (H) x 30″ (W) and is priced at $2,045. Check out the pool of globe wine bars here.

Joining the gang is the bar globe refrigerator that is also a faithful reproduction from XVII Century. This elegant sphere of this globe bar holds 12 glasses and four bottles, with room for more inside the refrigerated cabinet. The refrigerator is handcrafted in Italy and is equipped with 110V. Both these accessories would surely make your guests envious of you. The price of different patterns of refrigerator globe bars vary from $1,849-$2,245.
