Stylish Designer Bottle Opener

Inspired by the naturally twisted shape of a seashell, designer Valerio Sommella has created an extraordinary bottle opener in which form and function come together in harmonious symbiosis. At first glance, the flattering shape of “ Bulla ” doesn’t suggest that this is a practical everyday object. Yet “ Bulla ,” with its twisted form, is perfectly suited as a bottle opener and feels particularly comfortable in the hand. The polished stainless steel surface looks sophisticated and elegant. With the practical leather strap—which provides a harmonious contrast to the shiny surface of Bulla —the bottle opener can be easily picked up and hung in the kitchen or bar area. Bulla can also be used as a keychain or even as a piece of jewelry (e.g., a pendant), ensuring you always have a bottle opener on hand when you’re on the go. With the design of “ Bulla ,” Valerio Sommella combines sculptural and functional elements in an exceptionally appealing way:“
” “ & ” “...these smooth forms, whose origin remains hidden at first glance, and the idea that some of these forms have a function that can only be guessed at.” This is how this bottle opener made of solid steel came to be. It rests in the hand like a polished seashell—organic and with distinct contours. As soon as light falls on it, it comes to life and reveals its full form through the reflections.”_{Valerio Sommella}
