A stunning Art Deco sterling silver bottle/cork opener by John Hasselbring. Extremely heavy in weight, this opener has a solid feel to it. It features a sterling silver finials (on each side of the handle). The opener portion is chrome. Circa 1920s. This opener has a magical feel it it. Truly a lovely piece.
Hallmarks: "Sterling" an be found on one of the finials and "<JH>Sterling 40" can be found on the other finial end.
Measurements: Approx. 6 3/4" tall (from the point of the spiral opener to the top of the handle)
Condition: Good vintage condition but with noticeable signs of age. For a piece that's 100 years old, this opener is in good condition. Here's a full summary:
1) The chrome opener is in in good shape overall but does show signs of age and wear.
2) The handle is in very good shape.
3) The sterling finials/ends are in good shape overall but do show mild age and wear including a few micro small dings (pinhead size).
In short, this piece is in good vintage condition overall but does show noticeable signs of age. Truly a lovely Art Deco piece. Cheers.
