Smathers & Branson Villanova Bottle Opener
Best sophisticated accessory for fans of classic, hand-stitched collegiate style.

The needlepoint inlay feels sophisticated and personal in the hand, while the hidden magnet ensures it stays accessible on your fridge rather than lost in a drawer. It’s an elevated upgrade for anyone tired of generic stainless steel.
