Dornoch Whisky Barrel Bookcase - More Sizes

Dornoch range rustic oak whisky barrel bookcase/shelving unit from Darach, available in two sizes.

Darach is a small family-run company based in Inverness in the Scottish Highlands who take pride in creating quality furniture and gifts from vintage oak whisky barrels.  

Each barrel has already played a vital role before it arrives at the Darach workshop. The stunning range of beautiful, unusual and functional pieces breathes new life into the old oak.

Darach try to maintain the character of the wood, reflecting any scars, fissures and other rustic features of the original barrel. Just as every stave, lid and ring is different, no two Darach pieces are the same.

Blackening & fungus -  Wooden barrels leak during the curing and swelling process, carrying black char dust from the interior through the seams to stain the exterior. Whisky fungus is a harmless, dark, velvety fungus which often appears on the outside of aging barrels, thriving on ambient ethanol vapours, rather than being standard mould. Both of these are considered features of the range & are deliberately retained, often being evident in the finished pieces.
