Q : Are these barrel heads used?
A : We have two lines of barrel heads, whiskey and wine. The whiskey heads are one-of-a-kind and have been aged during the production of Bourbon in warehouses of Kentucky. During this process, the heads develop a gold/amber color. The wine heads are brand new. They are top furniture grade, tight grain, slow growth, quarter sawn American oak (Quercus Alba).

Q : What is acceptable artwork?
A : We need to receive camera-ready art or digital files from you in order to proceed with an order that calls for custom engraving logo or other artwork. Camera-ready artwork is black and white reflective art, without halftone screens or color printing. Original 1200 DPI laser prints, printed at 200% of actual size needed, on high quality paper, will work just fine.
We prefer to work directly from digital files such as EPS, whether e-mailed to us or sent on disc. If you are sending your files on disc, we can accept IBM floppy, Zip disks or CD Rom’s. All files linked to the art, including all fonts, must be included on the disk. The bigger the art work the better. No web art, please. If sending via e-mail, include your phone number, business name and send to: art@barrelheads.com
