use it as a palette once again

Fabulous Mid Century Brass Dachshund Bottle Opener Battersea enamel though I don't think thatSo fun. I've found a few others of these mid century brass dachshund bottle openers out there, often, understandably, attributed to Walter Bosse, but I've learned he was not in fact the maker. Terrific form, nice weight in the hand, a pleasure to use makes one want to crack a bottle open just to use it, and great on the bar the rest of the time. 4 1 8" l x 5 8" w x 3 4" t and in very good vintage condition.
