Antique Corkscrew, 1873 Edwin Wolverson, Single Lever Corkscrew

Thank you for viewing our Store,

We have for sale an Antique 1873 Edwin Wolverson Single Lever Corkscrew
This is a splendid example of a Wolverson’s single lever handle paired with a Wolverson’s steel pull corkscrew (THE LEVER SIGNET).
The Tangent Lever was patented in 1873 and the Lever Signet was patented in 1876 both registered designs by Edwin Wolverson. Although patented and designed at different dates these were most likely sold as a set in or after 1876. The Lever Signet was designed to be use with or independently of the Lever, alone it would be considered a three-finger pull. The finish is a bronze-wash very common in the mid to late 1800s this set has about 80% of the bronze-wash remains on both pieces.
This is a very nice collector piece.

Era; 1876
Measures; lever 8” long, screw 4.5” long
Condition; very good for age, please zoom into all pictures
Photography props not part of sale.
