Antique Corkscrew With Turned Wood Handle gift for the collector with one eye and mouth

with one eye and mouth wide open

Most commonly featuring depictions of Buddhist monks--the more packed in the better--they continue to be made

which add up to a great patina

dates I believe to the late 1800s

Antique Corkscrew With Turned Wood Handle gift for the collector with one eye and mouthA great old corkscrew, probably late 19th early 20th century, with a nice long turned wooden handle, allowing for a good strong grip. Perfect for the home bar or throwing in a picnic basket along with a bottle of wine! 4 1 8" long, 3 1 2" across at handle, 5 8" wide. Good antique condition, with wear and some dryness light cracking to the wood (which I have not touched). Works well!
