Description from the seller

Antique Vintage Corkscrew with Bamboo Wood Handle – France, 1960s/1970s (With Certificate)

fascinating and original French vintage corkscrew in a "T" shape (tire-bouchon), dating from the period spanning the 1960s and 1970s.

The distinctive feature of this piece lies in its splendid natural bamboo wood anatomical handle, which shows the characteristic grain and fiery knots of the plant, offering a comfortable grip and a design with a wonderfully retro and exotic flair. The screw (worm) mechanism is made of chrome-plated metal, robust and well preserved, as shown in the photos.
A traditional tool that combines functionality with the elegance of bygone times. It’s the perfect accessory to add to the collection of a wine enthusiast, ideal for enriching a wine display or simply to impress guests when opening a bottle with the charm of tradition. It also proves to be an excellent and original gift idea.
