Know before you buy
The needlepoint is an inlay within the wooden handle. While it is crafted from durable French cotton thread, it is not waterproof, so it is best to wipe the handle clean with a dry cloth rather than submerging it in water.
The integrated magnet is designed to hold the weight of the bottle opener securely against a refrigerator or any magnetic surface, allowing for convenient storage and easy access.
No, this item is not dishwasher safe. The combination of solid wood and hand-stitched needlepoint requires hand-cleaning to maintain the integrity of the materials.
This is a standard handheld bottle opener designed specifically for traditional beer bottles with crown caps.
The handle is crafted from solid wood with a chestnut-colored finish, providing a smooth, durable grip that complements the needlepoint inlay.
