This Horseshoe Crab Bottle Opener is one of one. We literally have one in stock. When we say Limited Edition here, we go all in.
Originally from Best Made Co. Here’s what they have to say about it…
We discovered this gem from metalworker Matthew Hall—a horseshoe crab cast in solid bronze that serves as both bottle opener and small sculptural object. Made through lost wax casting, a technique dating back to 2500 BC, each shell begins as a wax model before being transformed into a permanent bronze piece at a foundry near Hall's studio.
The process creates natural variations in texture and patina, capturing the ribbed details and organic form of the original specimen. The heft of solid bronze gives it a presence—this is the kind of object that soon finds a permanent place on a desk or mantle, ready for action but appreciated at rest.
