Description

Crafted in Laguiole, France, this Forge de Laguiole corkscrew features a distinctive Barrel Oak handle, made from repurposed oak wine barrels used in winemaking. Rich in character and history, each handle showcases subtle grain patterns, toasted undertones, and the natural markings of a life spent aging fine wine.

Forged from high-quality stainless steel and entirely handmade by a single master cutler, this corkscrew includes a precision-tapered spiral for smooth cork removal, a single-lever mechanism, and the signature hand-chiselled bee, symbolising true French craftsmanship.

The Barrel Oak corkscrew is more than a tool — it’s a story in your hand. Ideal for wine enthusiasts, hosts, and collectors who appreciate materials with meaning. Available now in Australia from Forge de Laguiole’s official importer.

Barrel oak is a unique and character-rich handle material used in Forge de Laguiole products. Sourced from wineries in the renowned Bordeaux region, this wood carries the essence of fine winemaking. The surface is intentionally kept flat to showcase the natural red wine stain, a beautiful reminder of its past life aging some of the world’s best wines. With its deep history and rustic elegance, barrel oak brings a touch of French heritage to every piece.

Stainless steel has a sleek and smooth surface.
