It works both as a bottle stopper and, thanks to its included glass stand, as a display object when not in use.
After each use, remove the inner seal, rinse it under warm water, and dry it with a soft cloth. Polish the steel figure with a lint-free cloth; do not wash in a dishwasher. When the bottle is open, rest the figure on its glass stand, away from direct sunlight.

The Dolphin Who Found Amphitrite
When Poseidon fell in love with the sea nymph Amphitrite, she fled to the foothills of the Atlas Mountains, wanting neither marriage nor the throne of the deep. Poseidon’s messengers could not find her — until a dolphin located her on Naxos and, with words gentle enough to persuade a god, brought her back. Amphitrite accepted the marriage out of gratitude, and the dolphin was raised into the sky as the constellation Delphinus. Dolphins have carried the sea’s loyalty and tenderness ever since.
This stopper gives that tenderness a form: a mother and her calf, held close. In our atelier the figure is produced by investment casting, following the same sequence ancient bronze-workers used — a hand-shaped wax model, a refractory mould, then stainless steel poured at high heat. Surfaces are hand-finished; the closeness between the two figures can be felt even by touch.
The food-safe inner stopper keeps wine from air; when not in use, the figure rests on its own glass stand. It comes in three colour options. Like the loyal creature that found Amphitrite, this small sculpture brings a table a warmth you wouldn’t notice was missing until it’s there.
