Julius Slöör was not a traditional inventor and entrepreneur as we know entrepreneurs of the industrial era. Julius Slöör's mission was in the area of wholesale ironmongers.
Julius Slöör was recognized as very knowledgeable and developed his business to be the one of the leading businesses in Stockholm, Sweden by that time. At the time many entrepreneurs were primarily manufacturers. Julius Slöör was somewhat the opposite, a distributer and merchant person. He was only 23 years of age when he started his company in 1858.
The Slöör shop did many corkscrews- But his direct pressure based on the Qvarnström patent is the prominent one. The company was primarily a wholesale ironmonger and appliance business in Stockholm. The address was järntorget in Old Town, Stockholm.
This is a nice example of the CS. Fully operational and fully marked on the handle.The corkscrew is complete. The mechanism is tight and works smoothly. Please review my photos. Ca 1895. The CS was produced years after Julius Slöör s death.
Please review my corkscrew page www.vintagecorkscrewcenter.com for the full story of Julius Slöör and Mr Nordzell who probably was the man who improved the patents.
My reserveprice is 450 £. Good luck with your bidding.
