The handle is made with the yee tree of the "Bosquet de la Reine" (the bosquet of the Queen) from "Le Château de Versailles"

.After the terrible storm of december 1999 which destroyed the rare trees of the Château de Versailles garden, we have created the Château Laguiole corkscrew signed by Olivier POUSSIER.
