Original and full of character, this antique silver-plated corkscrew depicts a stylized cat with an arched back and inlaid red eyes (likely made of glass or pâte de verre). The worm passes through the animal's body, creating a piece that is both functional and decorative. The T-shaped handle, typical of antique corkscrews, provides a comfortable grip.

A collector's item, this accessory testifies to the inventiveness of 20th-century manufacturers in the field of everyday objects with animal themes. It appeals to wine lovers as well as collectors of novelty corkscrews or tableware curiosities.
