Know before you buy
No, this opener is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the high-shine polished finish, we recommend hand washing and drying it immediately after use.
Because each piece is individually cast and finished, you should expect slight variations in the metal. These unique characteristics are a natural part of the artisanal process and ensure your opener is one-of-a-kind.
Brass is a durable, long-lasting metal that is well-suited for a bottle opener. Over time, the polished finish may develop a natural patina, which many owners find adds to the character of the piece.
Yes, the opener is designed with a smooth, ergonomic finish that fits comfortably in the hand. At 4 3/8 inches long, it provides enough leverage to open standard beer and soda bottles with ease.
You can restore the original luster by using a high-quality brass polish and a soft microfiber cloth. Avoid using abrasive scrubbers, as these can scratch the polished surface.
