ABOUT PRODUCTID 23390
This Biedermeier corkscrew, dating from around 1880, originates from the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Its construction features a cylindrical body and a symmetrical handle, both crafted from solid walnut wood in a warm, honey-brown tone with fine visible grain. The wood's surface is matte with a subtle natural sheen, and the handle is ergonomically shaped with rounded ends and decorative turned rings—hallmarks of the Biedermeier style, which favored simplicity and gentle, flowing lines. The steel worm is hand-forged, retaining its original dark patina and minor traces of oxidation consistent with its age. A central steel rod connects the mechanism, ensuring a robust and balanced build, with harmonious proportions throughout. Minor surface marks, small dents, and darker spots testify to genuine age and use, yet there are no major damages or signs of restoration. Preserved in very good condition, the piece bears authentic traces of time.The form of this corkscrew evokes the voice of the Biedermeier era: a period that valued everyday comfort, yet was not without understated finesse. Its measured proportions and gentle lines speak of a world where even small objects were designed for harmony and the calm rhythm of domestic life. The warm, aged walnut and hand-forged steel mechanism carry with them the memory of 19th-century gatherings, where craftsmanship and function shaped the atmosphere of family conversation and celebration.This corkscrew could be paired with other
