Once we hit December 1st I started getting emails from fellow collectors showing their best six corkscrews for 2023 and I must admit that I found it a little odd since we had a whole month left to add more corkscrews to our collections for 2023, and possibly a best six contender. Although, from my experience, December is usually a pretty slow time for buying corkscrews. People are on holiday; the auction houses are on holiday, and there usually just isn't much out there. I have yet to finalize my best six for 2023, but will be doing so in the next few days.
I'm excited to report that I managed to acquire a best six contender just before the end of the year. It's a Christmas miracle! Arriving a few days before Christmas was this phenomenal boars tusk corkscrew with mechanical frame and a Sterling silver bear's head with ruby eyes. Stay tuned; my 2023 best six is coming soon as well as the first few corkscrews of 2024 which are sure to end up in next/this year's best six.
