Vintages of Time is a handcrafted sculptural object made from smoked oak and approximately 1,400 individually cut wine cork discs. Each cork carries traces of its origin and represents a preserved moment from the past.

Through the contrast between the dark smoked oak and the warm texture of the cork, the work transforms fragments of wine history into a reflection on time, memory, and change. Materials once connected to brief moments of enjoyment are rearranged into a lasting sculptural form.

The artwork explores how seemingly ordinary and discarded materials can preserve both personal and collective memories. It is part of the ongoing body of work by Voß Design Objects.

Vintages of Time

This one-of-a-kind wall object is handcrafted from reclaimed wine corks, carefully selected for their individual markings, dates and symbols. Every cork carries a fragment of history, transforming an everyday material into a lasting sculptural composition.

The natural live-edge wood forms the foundation of the piece, preserving its organic character while contrasting with the geometric arrangement of the corks. Rather than concealing the imperfections of the material, the work embraces them, highlighting the relationship between nature, craftsmanship and time.

Each piece is entirely unique and cannot be reproduced.
