At first glance, it’s just a bottle opener,20 cm long, 7 cm wide, heavy at 219 grams. But its engraved brass surface tells another story: a pharaoh’s profile, an ankh, scattered hieroglyphs.
Recovered from a shipwreck near Alexandria in 1863, it was said to belong to a French archaeologist obsessed with unlocking ancient secrets. This wasn’t just a tool — it was part ritual, part relic.
Some say it could “open” more than bottles,doors to knowledge, or to things best left sealed.
Passed from hand to hand, always briefly, it left strange tales in its wake: unopened letters turning to dust, clocks ticking backward, bottles that hissed before being touched.
Don’t let its shape fool you. This is no ordinary object.
This is a whisper from the Nile.
