The Virtual Corkscrew Museum's Daily Newspaper

Letter to the Editor

After Christmas Shopping

Greetings! I just discovered your site and don't know what to do first - buy or sell. I was just in London where I purchased a modest corkscrew from one of the sellers at Portobello Road Market. He mentioned Helixophile which has led me to you. I am a craftsman / sculptor and I work in Bronze creating among other items a very interesting line of corkscrews. Some figural pieces and other styles.

My corkscrews are "one of a kind" pieces. (except for the grape & the Moon and Star & grape which are multiple that are lost wax cast. I still weld in the steel screw each time. I weld these pieces in bronze each one will be different every time I make them. They range in price from $45 for cast pieces, $75 for simple welded and forged items and up to $225 for the wine devil. Other figure pieces range from $150 to $225. I will consider making a new item on request.
