Furniture / Decoration Grade Whiskey Barrel - Headstamp

These retired barrels have been used for aging bourbon or whiskey from world class distilleries such as Wild Turkey, Willett, and Barton 1792. Each barrel is one of a kind, full of history and timeless charm, featuring a branded head stamp that makes it truly stand out.

Though not liquid grade, decor barrels are still in good condition with tight steel bands. You can expect natural imperfections like warped heads, rust, distress, or cracks—but we like to call that character.

Ideal for DIY furniture or decor, these barrels bring a touch of history and craftsmanship to any space. Head stamp styles vary based on the distillery, so every piece is genuinely unique.

Important notes:

• Furniture grade barrels are no longer fit to hold liquid and are not recommended for aging beverages.

• Barrels with head stamps come from a variety of distilleries, and stamp styles will vary. We cannot guarantee specific distillery brands or designs.

• Imperfections such as warped heads, cracks, rust, or other signs of previous use are possible when purchasing decor grade barrels, but the barrels remain structurally sound with tight steel bands.

• Because these barrels are authentic, you can expect distillery markings, unique wood coloration, rust on the bands & residual material on the inside of the barrel. We do not clean these barrels.

• All barrels were used to age bourbon or whiskey first. Some barrels may have also been used to age beer afterward.

• The images provided are for reference purposes only and may not represent the exact barrel you’ll receive as our inventory is constantly rotating.
