Mid-to-Late 20th Century Gnarled Wood Corkscrew & Charrington Beers Bottle Opene
This lot comprises a rustic hand-carved corkscrew with a gnarled wood handle, likely crafted from a grapevine root, and two vintage Charrington Beers bottle openers. The corkscrew features a polished finish with a standard helix worm, embodying a mid-to-late 20th-century style popular as a regional souvenir. The bottle openers, marked with 'Charrington Beers' and an emblematic Toby Jug logo, date to the circa 1950s–1970s as promotional brewery merchandise. While the corkscrew is in good cosmetic condition, the bottle openers exhibit moderate patina consistent with vintage breweriana.
