'Thirsty' bottle opener, sterling silver, aluminum plates: This piece was inspired by one of those free plastic openers you get in cases of beer, to be specific, Dos Equis! Mmmmmm! Customized touches were added to the concept such as the metal screws in the corner to give an industrial feel. The brass 'opener' piece itself was salvaged from the original openers but some material needed to be placed in between the silver plates and around the opener for thickness. As I work at a print company, I was able to cut up a used alliminum plate for this purpose. To finish it off, a classic bold font engraving to personalize the bottle opener. Salud!
