Claude Dozorme Prestige Champagne Sabre Napoleon Olive Wood Handle Mahogany Stand:
As you know, champagne is very popular. The opening of a bottle and its service are very ritualized and the sabrage of champagne is practiced since the time of Napoleon!
During the empire, this historical character broke the neck of the champagne bottles with a saber to celebrate a victory. Today, this rite is still very present.
Our oak box or mahogany base features a champagne saber and passementerie straps, reminiscent of the way the cavalrymen of the Napoleonic guard held their weapons on their wrists.
Our Napoleon champagne saber has an Olivier handle. The guard is gilded with fine gold.
