In 1872, soft drink maker Hiram Codd of Camberwell, London, designed and patented a bottle designed specifically for carbonated drinks. The bottle was designed and manufactured with thick glass to withstand internal pressure, and a chamber to enclose a marble and a rubber washer in the neck. The bottles are filled upside down, and pressure of the gas in the bottle forced the marble against the washer, sealing in the carbonation. The bottle is pinched into a special shape to provide a chamber into which the marble is pushed to open the bottle. This prevents the marble from blocking the neck as the drink is poured.

Please see the attached photos which are an integral part of this description.  All items are described to the best of my knowledge, however I usually don't state the obvious as this can be seen from the numerous photos provided.

As can be seen from the attached photos the bottles are all in excellent condition for their age.   

Items are offered at prices which reflect a number of factors including their current condition.  Please appreciate that all items are antique/vintage/used and therefore are likely to show varying degrees of age-related wear and tear.  If you are looking to purchase an item in guaranteed 100% pristine condition, may I suggest you consider purchasing something new rather than antique or vintage which will almost inevitably show some signs of age.

If you need any additional information please contact me before proceeding with a purchase or bid.   Please note that this item may also be offered for sale elsewhere (e.g.: via other platforms or at antique fairs) so if you intend to purchase please do not hesitate as it could lead to disappointment!

These items can be shipped worldwide, subject to the schedule of excluded countries noted in the listing.   

When completing a purchase, please provide confirmation of your address along with an email address and telephone number as these may also be required by the carrier.   Recent experience has shown that contact details held on E-bay are often incomplete or simply incorrect.

If the items are to be shipped out of the UK (including to the Channel Islands, Isle of Man, the Scottish Islands and N. Ireland,) please get in touch (ideally prior to bidding or purchasing a 'buy it now' item) in order to agree a final shipping quote as THE CHARGE SHOWN IN THE LISTING IS AN ESTIMATE FOR YOUR GUIDANCE ONLY. 

In the event of a small underestimation of final shipping cost, I will accept to meet that shortfall.  However, if there is a significant variation between the estimated shipping cost and actual cost then the additional sum payable will be advised to the buyer and a debit will be raised through PayPal.

Shipping/postage costs from the UK do not include any provision for import or similar taxes or customs duties or third party handling fees which may become payable in the buyers home country.  All of these and the like (if any) are strictly for the buyers own account.  

Please also take particular note that in the unlikely event that an item needs to be returned to the UK, any sum which becomes payable due to the re-import of the item will be for the original buyers account and must be paid prior to shipping the item back to the UK.

Unless otherwise agreed, Insurance is not provided and is something for the buyer to arrange for themselves, if required.  Every effort will be made to pack items as safely and securely as possible, please appreciate however that no liability will be accepted for loss or damage once the item has been dispatched.  Please also refer to the protection which may be provided to you under the eBay money back guarantee scheme
