It's hard to ask for better corkscrews to be your first finds of the year. These two will certainly be best six contenders for the year. Both are made of carved whale tooth Scrimshaw. One is carved with shoulder length uniform bust of George Washington with ribbon banner below with carved inscription Cincinnatus Lucius Quinctus (name of the Roman patrician, statesman and military leader, for whom the American Revolutionary war officers Order of Cincinnatus was named) the other end is carved in the form of an eagle head. The second corkscrew is intricately carved into a cornucopia.
