Hootch Owl Corkscrew

How adorable is this Hootch Owl corkscrew? Red Envelope launched this vintage inspired owl shaped corkscrew based on the famous 30s R. G. Smythe's patent owl design. As you twist it, the corkscrew is drawn down into the bottle cork, and the owl wings rise upwards. It's cute enough to sit on your kitchen counter while not in use.

Love this, just bought one! What a tasteful redesign of the 1930's classic! The real one is very desirable collector's item, but the finish and handle design of this refreshed model is great! L O V E IT!

Hi My Owl Barn, what were the search terms you used? The link does not show them. I've tried looking on the site with search term Hootch/ Owl/ Corkscrew but couldnt find any. Also, thank you very much for getting back! I am really excited to get this item.

Try searching with "Noctua Bottle Opener". Good luck!
