SEA GLASS CODD MARBLE NECKLACE IN SILVER PLATED BEZEL EN ESPAÑA

There are many C marks, where the marbles have hit rocks during their time in the North Sea. This is a feature which makes your sea glass marble more unique.

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 was pinched into a special shape, as can be seen in the photo to the right, to provide a chamber into which the marble was pushed to open the bottle. This prevented the marble from blocking the neck as the drink was poured. Codd bottles were used until the 1920s in Scotland/UK. Sea glass marble found on the rough coasts of Scotland. This marble has not been altered in any way, there is no glue or channel drilling involved in this piece of jewellery. It is important to me that the marble is 'untouched' just the way it was found on the beach. Marbles are round, ball shaped, spheres. All pictures taken inside without flash.
