Carved directly from natural, gnarled grapevine rootstock ( souche de vigne ), this piece showcases a rich contrast of light and dark wood tones with deep knots, natural contours, and a smooth protective lacquer finish. Because no two vine roots grow alike, this is a truly one-of-a-kind example of functional folk art. The nickel-plated steel shank is clearly stamped with the maker's hallmark: LAURENT SIRET / ROCHEFORT S/L. FRANCE . Featuring a wide 7.5-inch ergonomic grip, this substantial corkscrew offers excellent leverage while making a striking display piece for mid-century modern (MCM) decor, home bars, or wine enthusiast collections. Origin: Rochefort-sur-Loire, Loire Valley, France Era: Circa 1950s–1970s Dimensions: Approximately 7.5" Wide x 1.7" Deep Weight: 5.9 oz (167 g) Condition: Excellent vintage condition with strong metal spiral and intact glossy finish. A Brief History of Laurent Siret Founded in the 1920s in the famous Loire Valley wine region of France, Laurent Siret revolutionized artisan barware by upcycling old, discarded grapevine rootstock from local vineyards. Each piece was hand-carved to highlight the natural twists and character of the wood. Production ceased decades ago, making original Laurent Siret corkscrews increasingly difficult to find and highly sought after by collectors today. SPECIFICATIONS Dimensions 7.5 in W x 1.7 in D Weight 5.9 oz. +- Condition Very Good Vintage Condition. The natural grapevine root handle remains structurally solid, dense, and firm with no cracks, split damage, or looseness at the shank connection point. The original high-gloss finish retains great clarity and lustre across all knots and contours. The steel worm (spiral) is straight and sharp with no bending or rust, and the stamped maker's mark on the shank remains fully legible and clean. Shows only light, age-appropriate vintage wear consistent with minimal handling. Ready for immediate use or display. 📦 Extreme care will be taken during packaging and shipping.
