Description
xPolished craftsmanship meets celebration
Designed by Le Creuset, this compact champagne opener brings precision to moments worth toasting. The Champagne Star Opener measures 1.5 inches and wears a sleek black nickel finish. After the wire cage comes off, the tool slips into the cork notch and, with a single twist, guides the cork out with calm, controlled motion. Its thoughtful design adds a touch of elegance to any champagne ritual, from a New Year’s Eve countdown to a quiet toast with close friends.
How it works
The standout is a four-pronged star that gently grips the cork and loosens it as you twist. This approach helps manage pressure in the cork and reduces the chance of a wild pop, so you maintain a steady pour while keeping hands free for the glassware.
