The Durand is a two part device that removes old and fragile corks whole and undamaged.
Invented by wine collector Mark Taylor who had struggled with challenging corks when opening older fine wines.
Using The Durand for older, fragile or compromised corks eliminates the unwanted outcomes of broken corks, corks pushed into bottles or corks partially removed leaving pieces floating in the wine.

Description
"The Durand, designed by Atlanta collector Mark Taylor, delivers both pieces in one package so that they fit together properly and securely. That, combined with the decent heft of the device, makes it feel stable. Testing proved that it works. The only tricks are rocking the blades of the Ah So as you inset them, and getting that first twist started. But with The Durand, at least you can be sure the cork won’t disintegrate and crumble into your bottle." - Owen Dugan – Wine Spectator
