Product Description
An antique boar tusk corkscrew and brush with tall ship scrimshaw
This antique boar tusk corkscrew with brush uses a curved wild boar tusk as its handle, with a steel worm below and a bristle brush at one end for sweeping cork and dust from the bottle. The tusk carries a tall ship scrimshaw by Brian Kiracofe.
Tusk-handled corkscrews with brushes were a stylish barware tool in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Paired with new scrimshaw, this antique becomes a one-of-a-kind collectible.
