Expect Sand & Birch to give us the unexpected when it comes to modern furniture. The brand has indeed given us some furniture designs that are as unique as the moon and the earth. Names like the Diamond Sofa, Lu Armchair as well as the Winebag wine cellar made in co-operation with Ellemme have set a benchmark of their own. Now, the duo of Andrea Fino and Samanta Snidaro have decided to go a wee bit snazzy with the Glossy Lipstick. No this isn’t a cosmetic but trust us it will add the same magic to your living room as a lipstick does to an early morning face.
We are talking about an extraordinary sofa or should we say piece of seating that has been made by using glass and lexan with a clear silicone coating to seal the deal.

Ellemme has got together with Sand & Birch to design a new wine cellar concept that is being celebrated as the Winebag Collection. This one has been designed so that it has both functional qualities as well as aesthetic delight. As typical to designs by Ellemme, this one too has been created by combining the best from ancient handicraft with the latest, most innovative production technique.
Especially crafted to be fitted in a hotel room or resort, or even a luxury home front, the Winebag has enough room to store 18 bottles. Oak lamination keeps the doors attractive while the special anti UV rays double glass helps protect the wine from light rays. We are told that the standard version comes in white or black lacquer, but if you do not like those you can try out the deLuxe version that has been covered with fine quality leather but it stores only 8 bottles.
