Pendleton Whisky Auctions Rare Western Barware for Heritage Museum

PORTLAND, Oregon — September, 2026 —

Pendleton Whisky has launched The Pendleton Whisky Heritage Collection, a limited-time auction offering rare Western drinking vessels, one-of-a-kind artisan works, and exclusive pieces created in collaboration with Pendleton Woolen Mills. The collection is available through October 6, with all proceeds directed to the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum.

Among the highlights are antique drinking vessels dating to the mid-1800s, placing the collection squarely within the broader tradition of American West material culture that has long attracted serious collectors. A commissioned sterling silver decanter by noted Western silversmith Beau Compton anchors the contemporary artisan offerings and represents the kind of one-of-one craftsmanship rarely available through a single curated sale.

The auction format gives collectors a direct opportunity to acquire historically significant and newly crafted barware while supporting an institution dedicated to preserving the legacy of the American West. Each lot in the collection reflects Pendleton Whisky’s longstanding connection to Western heritage, extending that identity from the bottle to the bar cart in a tangible and collectible form.

Bidders and collectors can browse and place bids through the official Pendleton Whisky Heritage Collection store at store.pendletonwhisky.com. High-resolution imagery of the collection is available for press use through the brand’s media resources.
