Custom Ladies Leg Corkscrew
This was a custom carved ladies leg handle corkscrew. The leg is boxwood and the boot is ebony with an antique sterling silver end cap. The stitches were carved into the boot. The worm was an antique worm that we turned and faceted the upper section to add design.

This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.
We are a 2 brother team with an extensive background in antiques and art. Our parents were antique dealers and we started out doing restoration and through that process learned how to make quality furniture using the old techniques. We saw what worked and what constantly failed. We combine modern tools and technology with the craftsmanship and attention to detail of old.
We had the opportunity to build 6 pieces of furniture for George Bush Sr.'s presidential library. We duplicated the carved eagle game table, a Hepplewhite dresser, a Duncan Phyfe drop leaf console table, a federal game table, and 2 federal chairs that went into the oval office replica. Since then we got to build president Nixon's oval office desk replica that is currently on a special display in his library.
Now you don't have to be a president to have our furniture. Those pieces were a once in a lifetime opportunity and we are lucky to be able to say we have furniture in 2 presidents library's. We love making furniture and there is no job to big or to small. We are driven by the smile on our clients faces when shown their completed projects. We always say we won't get rich making furniture but our friendships and furniture will last a lifetime.
