I think this is just a wonderful set

they have often been used by museums and universities as teaching tools

Antique Treen Corkscrew wood and wire bird cage I think this is justAnother nice old turned wooden corkscrew, this one with a blonde wood handle and steel "worm" that runs all the way through it. It's definitely seen a lot of use, with a fair amount of wear to the wood, but still lovely, structurally in great shape and works perfectly. Late 19th century, I believe. A great gift for your favorite wine steward. 4 3 4" long x 4 3 8" wide x 7 8" deep.
