The Fontenille Pataud Laguiole Magnum Guilloché Sommelier Corkscrew in pink fossil mammoth molar combines a material rich in history with exquisitely detailed finishing and the precision of a professional mechanism handcrafted in France.
Entirely handcrafted in Thiers, the historic heart of French cutlery, the Laguiole Magnum Guilloché Sommelier Corkscrew in pink fossil mammoth molar is an exceptional creation where natural history meets distinguished craftsmanship. Its generous silhouette and precious finishing details make it both a refined wine instrument and a remarkable collector’s piece.
Its sculpted handle is crafted from genuine fossil mammoth molar originating in Siberia. The pink colouring enhances the material’s relief, mineral contrasts and naturally irregular patterns. Because every fragment possesses its own distinctive structure, no two corkscrews are ever perfectly identical.
This Guilloché edition is distinguished by its finely chiselled liners, which add sophisticated decorative detailing to the profile of the corkscrew. The spring is also hand-chiselled in keeping with traditional French cutlery techniques, while the iconic Laguiole bee is forged from solid metal rather than welded.
Fontenille Pataud’s patented long, single-piece two-step lever provides smooth, progressive and controlled cork extraction. The fine, tapered worm enters the cork easily without excessive compression, while the Sandvik 12C27 stainless-steel foil cutter delivers a clean and precise cut.
Comfortable, balanced and unmistakably distinctive, this Laguiole Magnum brings elegance to the finest wine-tasting occasions. Presented in a refined display box, it is a prestigious gift and an exceptional piece to collect or pass down to a new generation.
