A closer look at the components that define Uva Cellars' intelligent design
A proprietary magnetic gravity-latching mechanism supports tool-free installation across exotic hardwoods, high-end architectural stone, and metals or alloys — structural integrity maintained discreetly behind the finish. Mount configurations can be mixed within a single installation to create tiered, multi-functional cellars that balance high-density storage with feature display.
A standalone architectural element, showcasing wine away from structural walls. The cradles attach to vertical columns, forming cellar islands, glass-enclosed partitions, or floor-to-ceiling displays. Available in single-sided (floating wall effects) or double-sided (transparent room dividers) arrangements.
Cradles are mounted directly to a finished wall or panel — a sleek, label-forward showcase. Ideal for retrofit projects or new construction where a clean, flush wall appearance is desired; the wine becomes the focal point against any backdrop.
High-density storage optimised for maximum capacity, displaying the cork for quick inventory reference. Two layout options: Aligned, for highly organised rows and a minimalist, structured look; or Staggered, for a dynamic, contemporary texture that enhances visibility of individual bottles.
Engineered with a robust in-wall support architecture and optimized cabling system, allowing for streamlined, highly adaptable installation across diverse spaces.
Cradles can be made with a wide selection of materials and finishes — a core palette of polished or powder-coated metals and hand-finished hardwoods, Additional materials — specialty metals and exotic hardwoods — are available on request.
