by Stil Novo Design
(California)

Stil Novo Design's creative Eco-friendly elegant home decor, custom furniture & 'green' gift ideas is made with recycled solid white oak French wine barrels.
We are a family business dedicated to create the finest woodcrafts, specialty pieces & custom furniture. Every piece is a 'one of a kind' item.
Why wine barrels?
The chemical properties of oak itself play a significant role in winemaking, affecting the color, flavor, and texture of the wine; however, over time many of the oak properties get "leached" out of the barrel though and after 3 to 5 vintages the barrel is ready to be discarded.
That's when we rescue, recycle and transform them into unique beauty to be given a new life in our customer's hands.
Our European influence is bringing an innovative, highly sophisticated sense of style and superior manufacture standards to this century’s ‘green revolution’.
Our customers are concerned with our environment, but still don’t wish to compromise on quality and elegance; we proudly strive to exceed their expectations.
We believe that ‘country-shabby-chic’ doesn't really need to be shabby at all, that the recycled shouldn’t be inferior to the high-end market’s standards and moreover should maintain the same sense of exclusivity and distinctiveness.

We hope you'll enjoy our products as much as we've enjoyed creating them for you.
