Description

Handmade in Laguiole, France, this Forge de Laguiole corkscrew features a warm, richly textured Briar wood handle, long prized for its use in fine pipe making. Known for its unique grain patterns and exceptional durability, briar offers both natural beauty and functional elegance — no two handles are alike.

True to Laguiole tradition, each corkscrew is handcrafted with every component created in-house under the same roof. It features a forged stainless steel body, a precision-tapered spiral for smooth cork removal, a single-lever mechanism, and the brand’s stamped bee emblem, a signature of French authenticity and heritage.

Tactile, timeless, and full of character, the Briar Forge de Laguiole corkscrew is ideal for wine lovers, collectors, and those drawn to rare and refined materials. Available in Australia through the official Forge de Laguiole importer.

Briar wood is a beautiful and durable handle material used in Forge de Laguiole products. Sourced from the root burl of the Erica arborea tree, it is primarily found in the Mediterranean region. Known for its intricate grain patterns and rich, warm hues ranging from golden brown to deep reddish tones, briar wood is highly prized for its unique aesthetic. It is also naturally heat-resistant and often carries a subtle, pleasant woody scent. This elegant material adds a touch of sophistication to each piece, making it a favourite among collectors and enthusiasts.

We carry a small, rotating selection of Forge de Laguiole corkscrews in Sydney, available for immediate dispatch.

Standard vs Damascus

Stainless steel has a sleek and smooth surface.
