This Laguiole acacia wood corkscrew sets a pale, speckled acacia handle into a matte stainless steel body. It is a three-function corkscrew from Laguiole en Aubrac in France.
The acacia here is light and flecked, almost like burl, with a soft golden cast. The matte steel keeps the whole piece understated. It looks natural and calm next to linen and ceramics.
The handle is acacia wood, and the body is matte stainless steel. It includes a foil cutter, a corkscrew and a bottle opener. It comes in a French oak gift box with a certificate of authenticity. A lifetime warranty covers any manufacturing defects. It is made in the village of Espalion, in the historic Laguiole area of France.
It suits a relaxed kitchen where wine is part of cooking. You will like how little it asks for attention. It is a safe gift when you do not know the recipient's style.
