vintage Von Stiehl "Authentic Rune" bottle collection

This is a collection of three Von Stiehl "Authentic Rune" cherry wine wooden bottles. The "Primitive Viking Bottle", as they were labeled in the late 1960s - early 1970s, were a clever way of preserving von Stiehl's cherry wine. The bottles are charred wood with a plastic interior casing. They are part of the "Days of the Week" collection with the Rune carvings depicting differing days of the week. Two of the bottles are Sunday with a sun carving, and one is Monday with a moon carving. Von Stiehl is the oldest licensed winery in Wisconsin, started in 1967, and these early bottles are a nod to the Norse/Viking heritage of the region.

CONDITION
