Repurposed Furniture San Diego - 100 Whiskey Barrels | Hungarian Workshop

Wine & Whiskey Barrel Furniture

The Hungarian Workshop’s main focus is on up-cycled Wine and Whiskey Barrel Furniture. The company started out in 2010 making standard outdoor patio furniture and in 2012 transitioned into repurposing old barrels. Barrels are made from either French, Hungarian or American White Oak. The wood is a solid, sturdy and durable material which is great for furniture and it’s a shame to see them thrown away. Certain wineries and distilleries go through hundreds of barrels a year and I am just glad to know my company is helping out. So far we have turned well over 400 barrels into furniture and we are not showing any signs of slowing down just yet.

These Whiskey Barrel Bar Stools are made out of old and used whiskey barrels that were no longer able to hold and alcohol. Once a distillery has used them for many many years they usually will sell them of to breweries. Most brewers will age their specialty stouts or dark beers in old barrel to give the beers that great hint of whiskey flavors, long with a nice tone of oak-inness. Then after the barrel has been used once it gets a whole new life as furniture. The Whiskey Barrels are made from American White Oak which is an excellent wood for indoor and outdoor furniture. With the right amount of sanding you can keep each stave smooth and leaving just the right amount of charring and patina behind to show of its beautiful characteristics and history.

Whiskey Barrel Bar Stools by The Hungarian WorkshopWe receive barrels from lots of companies: Makers Mark, Jim Beam etc. and many local breweries as well. One of our main partner is Stone Brewing Company who we have been supplying with Whiskey Barrel Furniture for the past 2 years now.

Designed with comfort in mind the arm and back rest will keep you supported and relaxed for extended periods of time. Great for any type of bars, patio and decks.

 The Story

Whiskey Barrel Bar Chair | Hungarian WorkshopThe design on the Whiskey Barrel Bar Chair started well over a year ago. I would here from lots of my customers asking me if I will ever make a bar stool of some sort. As soon as I had a few days where I didn’t have any orders to fill, work and designing began. It took over 3-4 prototypes and couple weeks to get this one just right. The swivel I thought was a must because a large percent of all bar stools have that feature which everyone loves. Plus I have not yet seen a barrel bar chair nor barrel bar stool with one. These chairs are a great seller and everyone who owns them loves them.

The Whiskey Barrels

Each Whiskey Barrel is different, no two barrels are exactly the same. The quarter sawn white oak shows off the woods beautiful grain pattern and characteristics. After a light sanding the surface stays smooth and clean. Leaving behind the barrels old markings and history.

New Stone Brewing Company Locations in Petco Park

“Two new stone brewing company locations by one great stadium!”

New stone brewing company locations right on the roof top by the palm trees! Last week I received an email from one of the project mangers telling me there is yet another new Stone Brewing Company location. I figured it would be just a regular tasting room somewhere ordinary. When I found out it was going to be at Petco Park I was very excited and a bit surprised. Normally I would have heard of a new project going up since the Hungarian Workshop supplies pretty much all their location with at least a few Whiskey Barrel Furniture. Usually orders would take us a few weeks but this time all we had was 4 days.

With opening night just around the corner we put everything on hold and rushed to pick up Stone’s old and used barrels. Luckily San Diego had great weather that week and it was warm and sunny letting the barrels dry out just enough to get started.  After a few hectic days we finished all four chairs 100% by saturday night.New stone brewing company locations in Petco Park | Hungarian Workshop

One of the new stone brewing company locations in Petco Park is on the sixth floor right behind home plate. It is on the rooftop above Hodad’s with a beautiful view of the Coronado bridge and the convention center. Pretty much one of the best locations in the stadium in my book. The other spot is their new tap room down by the lawn area just outside the gates. I was already told they want six more chairs and there will be an order placed for the tap room in the near future!

Whiskey Barrel Chairs at Petco ParkWith Stone Brewing Company and Whole Foods under our belts I definitely see a huge boom in business this year. Not to mention we are currently working on a deal with WineEnthusiast.com.

Wine Barrel Chairs at Stone Brewing

 

“We have been making the wine barrel chairs at stone brewing company for almost two years now!”

Whiskey & wine barrel chairs at stone brewing | Hungarian WorkshopIf you were wondering who has made the wine barrel chairs at stone brewing, look no further. It was the Hungarian Workshop. It’s hard to believe that were are coming up on two years since I have been doing business with good old Stone. The best part about our relationship is that Stone Brewing Company is actually the ones who got me started with the whole up-cycled barrel furniture business. Working with them has been a blast and I am happy to say we still have plenty of work ahead of us.

Whiskey and Wine Barrel Chairs at Stone Brewing by The Hungarian WorkshopIf you haven’t had anytime to read through our About Page or Furniture Info Page, I will go ahead and give you the short version here.  I first got contacted through my Etsy page by one of the general managers from the Escondido Stone location. They were interested in my Redwood Furniture and with no time they bought a few for their garden area. As I was dropped off their first big order, I noticed a large container overfilling with old dirty Whiskey Barrel Staves. The bistro manager told me take a few pieces back and see if can make an Adirondack style chair. After I made them only one chair, Stone saw this great opportunity and environmentally friendly way to re-cycle their old barrels and rest is history.

Whiskey Barrel Chair #141 | Hungarian WorkshopIt takes one barrel to make one chair. I give the option to all my customers on the backrest style; Open or Closed Tops. Wine barrel chairs at stone brewing most often have the closed top and the Whiskey barrel ones stay open. The reason for that is because Whiskey barrels tend to come with more smaller size stave which are ideal for the open top style and wine barrels with much wider ones that are better for the closed top version.

If you are interested in our furniture please feel free to browse throughout the website and if you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact us.

Whiskey Barrel Furniture –

Whiskey Barrel Furniture are my favorite to make. From the shape of the barrels to the smell the wood gives off when making a new cut, I just love the material. Whiskey Barrels have come charred in the inside. The burnt wood is what give the whiskey its color and great taste. Once sanded down to smooth finish it leaves the nice dark black colors. The outside of the barrel will usually have a beautiful dark green and or brown patina. The American Oak that has been used for the past decade is fully aged and hardened in a way that you simply can not find any other kind of reclaimed material.

Wine Barrel Furniture | Hungarian WorkshopWine Barrel Furniture –

Wine Barrel Furniture a very popular. Just about everyone adores the beautiful red, burgundy and purple colors that the wine stains the wood with. Often new clients assume we stain the furniture artificially with a chemical stain. Once they learn that it’s just from the actual wine they fall in love with them even more. The furniture pretty much sell them self at that point. The outside of the barrel typically will be a nice golden brown and light beige. The contrast between the two colors work together amazingly. Any Wine Barrel piece will definitely give a room a huge boost in brilliance.

The concept of recycling and re-purposing material is making a huge come back. And what better way to do something good for the environment than reusing material like wood.

Whiskey Barrel Coffee Table

“This whiskey barrel coffee table is one of my newest and most favorite creation!”

Whiskey Barrel Coffee TableHaving recently finished up a large order of Whiskey Barrel Chairs for Stone Brewing Company, I had more than plenty of Whiskey Barrel tops & bottoms. Not wanting to throw them away even thought most of them were warped and made from small individual pieces, I got to thinking. Literately I had over 100 tops, multiple piles over 6-7 feet tall of great American White Oak. With not a whole bunch of options I realized I needed to offer a second kind of whiskey barrel coffee table.

Made only from used Whiskey Barrels. Every inch shows great character & a unique history.”

I really like the concept of using a barrel half like the other Wine & Whiskey Coffee Table but I wanted to utilize the empty space inside. First I thought about just flipping the barrel right side up from the other design, but right away I realized it will be way too similar. I want to offer multiple options to my customers therefore I went with the horizontal cut. This way the table will provide a larger surface area and more space inside. Plus now you can choose from a round or a square table.

Whiskey Barrel Table

Whiskey Barrel Coffee Table Inside

The most important fact about this table is that it’s 100% made from used Whiskey Barrels. The top is made from several barrel heads. Over 50 pieces are joined together to create a nice big table surface. It has a black patina because the inside of the Whiskey Barrels get charred to give the whiskey its great taste and color. The underside has a very neat look because some of the old marking and dates are still visible. The barrel body was taken apart completely then cleaned and assembled back together.
