The “Rotary Eclipse” barscrew, 1887. One of the most elegant of all barscrews. And one of the most difficult to find. Excellent condition. 11” H.    

The Rotary Eclipse 'Barscrew”, 1887. Revered by collectors as the “King of Corkscrews.”Polished brass, sculptural mechanism with a hand crank that efficiently drives the screw into the cork and pulls it out in one continuous motion. A complex, gear-driven rack & pinion mechanism. Uncommon.
