A custom built, "locking" wine bottle box designed for as a wedding gift. A newer tradition in which a fine bottle of wine is inserted into a box, locked, and given with intent to stay locked until a point in the distant future. This box was designed and built with the intention to be a heirloom piece and worth being displayed for years to come.
