Georg Jensen: Bernadotte

Corkscrew

Sometimes the evening begins with a single quiet sound

There are moments that seem surprisingly small and yet instantly change the atmosphere around them. The soft pop of a wine cork definitely belongs to that category. Suddenly, “just one glass” becomes a long evening filled with good food, unhurried conversations and perhaps a second bottle opened somewhere along the way. The “Bernadotte” corkscrew by Georg Jensen accompanies exactly these moments with quiet elegance and effortless refinement.

The design reflects the signature language created by Sigvard Bernadotte, one of the most influential Scandinavian designers of the 20th century. His iconic grooved detailing combines functional clarity with subtle Art Deco influences, giving even practical everyday objects a timeless sense of presence. That same balance defines the Bernadotte corkscrew.

Crafted from polished stainless steel and complemented by durable PA66 elements, the corkscrew feels balanced and comfortable in the hand. Its reflective surface catches light beautifully and brings calm sophistication to dining tables, kitchens or bar carts alike. Measuring 13.1 cm in height, 10.3 cm in width and 3.4 cm in diameter, the design combines tactile comfort with functional precision.

And honestly — very few good wine evenings begin with a bad corkscrew.

Functionality that never feels purely functional

The Bernadotte corkscrew demonstrates how naturally practicality and design can coexist. Its clean silhouette feels elegant and contemporary without ever becoming cold or overly technical. That quiet confidence makes it an object you are happy to leave visible rather than hide away in a drawer.

The polished stainless steel finish pairs beautifully with glassware, wood, linen textures and modern bar accessories, integrating effortlessly into different interiors and table settings. Whether used for relaxed aperitifs, dinner parties or a quiet glass of wine after a long day, this corkscrew brings understated elegance to the ritual.

Perhaps it is exactly these thoughtful details that make an evening feel memorable without anyone fully noticing why.

Georg Jensen and Scandinavian design with lasting character

Since 1904, Georg Jensen has represented exceptional craftsmanship and timeless Scandinavian design. What began as a small silversmith workshop in Copenhagen evolved into one of Europe’s most respected design houses.

Collaborations with visionary designers remain central to the identity of the brand. With Sigvard Bernadotte, Georg Jensen created objects that combine functionality, elegance and decorative restraint in a beautifully balanced way. His signature lines remain remarkably relevant even today.

Georg Jensen’s home and bar accessories continue this philosophy through refined materials, precise craftsmanship and designs intended to quietly elevate everyday rituals.

For good bottles and even better conversations

The “Bernadotte” corkscrew is ideal for elegant wine evenings, relaxed dinner parties or as a thoughtful gift for hosts and lovers of timeless design. Its refined silhouette integrates effortlessly into modern kitchens, bar carts and contemporary table settings alike.

Whether opening a favourite red wine, preparing an aperitif or uncorking a special bottle saved for the right evening, this object combines atmosphere and functionality with remarkable ease.

And sometimes, a truly good evening begins with exactly that one small turn.
