Antique Cast Iron Corkscrew – Marked Handle Possibly Williamson Co.

This is a vintage cast iron corkscrew with a thick, heavy-duty handle and a rugged build, likely dating to the late 19th or early 20th century. It appears to be an American-made piece, possibly for commercial or industrial use in a bar, tavern, or apothecary setting.

There is a stamped marking on the end of the handle. Due to wear and corrosion, its difficult to read clearly, but it may say WILLIAMSON CO or something similar (see close-up photos). Williamson Co. of Newark, NJ was a known manufacturer of corkscrews and openers during this period, though this attribution is not confirmed.
