French Wine Opener Corkscrew | Large Bernard Siret Grapevine is exactly the kind of storied wine accessory we love finding in France. Made with a wonderfully gnarled natural grapevine root handle and metal corkscrew, it has the organic, one-of-a-kind character that only comes with using the vine itself. A brass plaque marked “CAVE ROYALE Vins-Lausanne” makes this one especially interesting, while the metal shank is stamped Bernard Siret, Escalais, France.
For us, the grapevine is what makes this piece. Every knot, twist, and natural imperfection gives the handle its own shape, while the old vintner's plaque and stamped French corkscrew add another layer to the story. We would leave it right out on a bar or wine table rather than tuck it into a drawer.
