The oak forest story printed inside the box made me smile before I even got to the corkscrews. They dance together like a tiny sculpture duo, and the pairing feels more like art than just barware.

The little story behind these—Alessandro’s design, his daughter’s take on it—makes them feel more like keepsakes than tools. The dancing characters in the oak forest are etched with such charm that I almost don’t want to use them, but they work beautifully.

The oak forest scene on these corkscrews makes them feel like tiny sculptures, and the pair’s dance motif is so charming I actually display them on the shelf when they’re not in use. They’re sturdy in the hand, and the whole concept clearly honors the designer’s father.
