Shinola, an upscale retailer of leather goods, watches, bicycles and more, employed the expertise of Brooklyn-based tattoo artist Scott Campbell to design an immaculate brass corkscrew.
Minimal in appearance, Shinola and Scott Campbell leave the metallic material exposed, making it the perfect host for the tattoo artist's unique engravings. These marking are included all along the sides of the cylinder-shaped brass corkscrew, as well as on each end.
Contrasting with the brass is a silver component that goes into the bottle. With this, the design is both durable and elegant, making it the perfect gift for those looking to amplify the appearance of their bar. Consumers looking to purchase one can find it on Shinola's online store.
