The Chateau Laguiole Versailles collection pays tribute to the historic specimen trees that once graced the famous gardens of the Château de Versailles. Originally imported from around the world during the late 18th century as part of the major garden restoration ordered by Louis XVI, many of these centuries-old trees stood until the historic storm of December 26, 1999. This exquisite collection honors that botanical legacy through fine craftsmanship and historic wood species.
All Versailles series corkscrews are proudly adorned with a Fleur de Lys—the traditional symbol of French royalty representing perfection, light, and life. Additionally, this series is presented with a signature blue leather sheath. Bleu de France (Blue of France) has represented the French monarchy and heritage since the early 12th century.
Created in 1993 by Master Sommelier Guy Vialis, the Chateau Laguiole waiter-style corkscrew was the first high-end Laguiole corkscrew on the market. Since its debut, Chateau Laguiole has remained the preferred choice among the world's best sommeliers and stands as the most iconic waiter-style wine opener in history. Every genuine Chateau Laguiole corkscrew is 100% Made in France.
Crafted from rare and striking Thuya wood (Cupressaceae), this handle honors the centuries-old Thuya trees planted in the Versailles gardens between 1776 and 1778. Prized for its dense, intricate burl patterns and rich aromatic heartwood, Thuya is native to northwestern Africa and has been celebrated in fine woodworking since antiquity. This model serves as a lasting tribute to the historic 221-year-old specimen that stood at Versailles until the storm of 1999.
