Monopol has been making high quality steel products since its establishment in 1879. Originally based in East Germany, the company relocated to Marburg in West Germany after WWII. Sadly, after about 150 years in business, the venerable Monopol has gone out of business. That makes this avant-garde corkscrew a valued collectible. Made in Germany, Monopol corkscrews and wine openers are among the finest in the world. Each corkscrew is not only beautiful to look at, but will also last a life-time. Superb functionality, precision manufacturing, and a brushed satin finish provide a combination of beauty, functionality and reliability not found anywhere else. Made of high quality Stainless Steel, Monopol corkscrews make lasting gifts. These Corkscrews are dishwasher safe.
This is a fully functioning "used" corkscrew that is in excellent condition. I did not try to clean it as I did not want to use the wrong cleaner. I was not able to identify the year of manufacture for this corkscrew. It's overall length is 6 1/2" and the only markings other than the "MONOPOL - Germany" on the t-screw in the photo, is on the bottom holder inside where it is marked "musterr-gesch" and "Germany".
