Description

Flynut corkscrew nickel-plated steel. This corkscrew was very popular during a 20th century. The wings of these corkscrews could have different forms (cf. illustration). The characteristic of this copy of the form comes from its cage mass and the large diameter of the screw (9 mm). Another important point is, the initials "ACo" in cursive letters engraved on one of the amounts of the cage. The propeller is free. The full worm turns to cutting is rather long for this type of corkscrew. Purchased at Gédinne in Belgium.
