Museum Provenance

In 1976, two Napa Valley vintages (now part of our Treasures of American History online exhibition)—astonished the world by winning first place in an international wine competition judged in Paris by nine leading wine experts. Now all 50 states boast at least one winery and America’s love of wine only continues to grow. Enhance your own wine experience with the exceptional accoutrements offered here, all evocative of holdings in our National Museum of American History’s ceramics, home, and costume collections.

Every Smithsonian purchase will arrive with a museum provenance card explaining how it is adapted from or inspired by an object or objects in our collection.
