The Brown Japanese Sake Barrel tells the room it's a Japanese night before anyone has opened a menu. Deep oxblood with off white brushwork, woven and bound in rope, it gives a bar launch, an izakaya style dinner or a restaurant opening the warm, well travelled look that party shop props never manage.
Japanese Theme Prop Hire That Looks Properly Researched
The wrap is genuinely woven, row by row, and the binding is a three strand rope, so it holds up in a close photo as well as from across the room. The face is one rich block of oxblood, printed in off white with brush calligraphy and fine line phoenix artwork, which gives a photographer something warm to shoot against.
It's 2.5kg, so our team can shift it during set up until the corner looks right. Stand it beside a welcome table dressed in a gold satin runner and the red and gold pick each other up.
Made for Launch Nights and Izakaya Dinners
Use the Brown Japanese Sake Barrel as a:
- Entrance piece for a restaurant or bar launch
- Bar end feature at an izakaya style dinner
- Welcome corner styling at a Japanese themed wedding
- Theming beside a sushi or yakitori catering station
- Set dressing for photo shoots, film and shop windows
Style a Restaurant Launch Around It
Say a new restaurant is opening with a Japanese menu and a long guest list. The Oriental Landscape backdrop runs behind the bar, red velveteen drapes soften the side walls and 65cm lanterns hang overhead. The barrel stands at the end of the bar beside the large red fan, and the welcome table at the door wears a gold runner, so every photo from the night has warm red and gold in it. If the room calls for a different mood, the same barrel comes in green, blue and orange.
Let Us Theme the Whole Venue
The barrel sets the theme, and we can carry it right through the venue. We hire drapes and event lighting, tablecloths and chair covers, and dry bars for the cocktail hour, and our Oriental and Asian event theme shows the look in full. Tell us the venue and the menu and our team will style it.
It's a display piece only: it doesn't hold sake, it doesn't open, and it isn't a seat.
Hire the Brown Japanese Sake Barrel on the Gold Coast
Like the rest of our event prop hire, it's delivered, placed and collected across the Gold Coast, Tweed and Brisbane, with nationwide delivery for larger events, so the corner is dressed before service starts. Launch dates lock in early, so check yours online or call 07 5520 4648.
Answers to your questions
Does the Brown Japanese Sake Barrel hold sake?
No, it’s a display barrel. It doesn’t hold anything and it doesn’t open, so it’s there purely for the look.
Can guests sit on it?
No, it isn’t built as a seat or a stand, so keep it as a feature beside the bar or the entrance.
Is it heavy to move?
No, it’s 2.5kg, so it’s easy to reposition while the room is being set.
Does it come in other colours?
Yes. The same barrel comes in green, blue and orange, so you can pick the one that suits your room.
Can you style the rest of the venue?
Yes. We hire drapes, lighting, table linen, chair covers and dry bars as well, and our team can set the whole room up.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as your date is set. Launch nights and Friday functions book up first.
