Breaking the neck of a champagne bottle was a ritual dear to Napoleon. To celebrate a victory under the empire, the rite consisted in breaking the neck of the bottles with a saber. The passementerie straps, supplied with this collector's item, are reminiscent of the cavalrymen of the Napoleonic guard and the way they held their weapons on their wrists.

Instructions for use: stand far from the guests and after having removed the corkscrew, let the sword slide energetically along the seam of the bottle, giving a sharp blow on the base of the neck in order to cut it without shattering the glass. Be careful, the neck of the bottle breaks and flies away with the cork at a speed of about 200 km/h and can reach a distance of at least 15 meters. Children are not allowed to break the champagne.
