Recycled Mussel Shells

"Nothing is lost nothing is created everything is transformed" as Lavoisier said

Lover of the sea or not, you will like this corkscrew whose handle is made of mussels shells finely crushed and compacted with resin.

It's surprising, but it's virtuous: if at the time of the Vikings, the knife handles were made of deer antlers found in the forest. From now on, our waste must become ecological and playful.

In France, the alternatives of recycling exist, such as the valorization of these shells in the form of powder, intended to nourish hens, to fertilize agricultural grounds.
