Thank you for viewing our Store,
We have for sale an Antique 1850s Rack & Pinion Corkscrew
Wonderful engineering on this one it is a 1850s English Rack & Pinion design corkscrew with horse hair dusting brush.
To use this in the 1800s you would have ventured down to the dirt root cellar chosen a bottle from the rack used the dusting brush to clean the dust and dirt off the bottle then opened your wine. Very simple to use placed the corkscrew over the bottle twist the wood handle driving the worm (screw) into the cork then twist the metal handle clockwise to raise the cork from the bottle.
Cira; 1800s
Measures; 8.5” long, 4.5” wide at handle.
Condition; Very nice vintage condition nice straight bladed worm a very solid piece, the dusting brush is worn down but original. Please zoom into all pictures.
