Alsatian House Riquewihr – Au Tire-Bouchon Miniature Ceramic House — a handcrafted replica of the "Au Tire-Bouchon" winstub, located in a typical half-timbered house in Riquewihr, one of France's most beautiful villages on the Alsace Wine Route.
Adjoining the cellar of Maison Zimmer, an independent winegrower whose cellar dates back to 1572, this family restaurant has perpetuated the tradition of authentic Alsatian cuisine since the 1970s, with its exposed stone walls, beams, and tiled stove.
Each piece is shaped and painted by hand, making it unique: slight variations in shape and color make each house an exclusive and authentic object.
This miniature house can be used as a decorative object or as an incense burner: a tea light placed inside diffuses light through the windows, creating a warm and intimate atmosphere.
It makes an original souvenir from Alsace or a gift idea for lovers of Alsatian heritage.
