The ice bucket, long a staple of high-class living, is often a bore to look at. Recently, however, we stumbled across an accessory that impressed.

Classy drinks, namely champagne, now have an equally classy partner in which to cool their boots. Designed by Marc Newson, one of Time Magazine’s 100 Most Influential People, this super-chic champagne cooler was made exclusively for Dom Perignon, but we figure you can use it for just about anything, despite the blatant labeling on the front.

And if you’ve ever run into trouble keeping ice in the actual ice bucket and off of the floor, say au revoir to that problem: this one comes with a lid—shaped like the top half of a bottle of Dom, mind you—but a lid nonetheless.

All in all, this aluminum accoutrement is a fool-proof way to chill your drink and provide some much needed eye candy in the beverage department.
