Description

Nice simple corkscrew with a turned handle, with the one of the ends a brush to clean the neck of the wax or stopper particles. Its forged shaft is round slightly conical, two flat parts were worked on each side. The full worm is with not centered point and quite cutting. The crossing shaft is bored to receive a small ring which made it possible to hang the corkscrew with a lady of the manor (small chain carried to the belt). The handle is fixed with a side nail. This model comes from Belgium.
