These original Vietnam War ammunition crates housed 2 cartridges of 105mm shells. This unique Howitzer piece has been retrofitted to house up to four upright 750ml-1.75 liter bottles and two 750ml wine bottles. The crate is designed to hang horizontally and the versatile design allows you to display items other than bottles on the left side of the crate.
A portion of every purchase is donated to one or more of our chosen non-profit organizations.
We are more than happy to customize most crates for you. We realize that sometimes the stain you want may not be available...no worries we can make one for you, usually with no additional charge. We just need a few extra weeks to customize it for you. The majority of our larger crates are made to order. However, we usually keep a few different variations in stock. If you don't have time to wait a few weeks for a custom crate please pick from our "in stock" items only. Feel free to email us with any special requests at: sales@artilleryworksco.com
