Antique 1800s Sterling Silver Roundlet Style Corkscrew, Wine Bottle Opener

Antique 1800s Sterling Silver Roundlet Style Corkscrew
Fabulous find, this 19th Century Sterling Silver Corkscrew. This is known as a Roundlet Style Corkscrew. Roundlets originated in the 18th century, and are still manufactured today, mostly in plastic sheath form.
This beautiful piece is an amazing find in excellent condition, with a sterling silver case and a steel fluted worm (corkscrew).
It is marked Sterling on the removable side of the sheath. Heirloom worthy.

The fluted worm (corkscrew) is designed with a groove cut along the backside of the worm which allows air into the bottle releasing the vacuum in the bottle, allowing the cork to pull easier.

Circa, Mid-Late 1800s.
Marked, Sterling.
Measures, 3-1/8” long.
Condition, excellent with one tiny ding at the rounded end of the sheath, (as shown). Plating lose on worm from use.
Please see all pictures as they are part of the description.
Photo Props not included in sale.
