I am a professor of hydraulics at a university in Spain: thank you very much! This mechanism that you have explained is truly interesting and very ingenious for the time. We explain it in class.
I live in America, I collect old bottles and just got a Codd Bottle, which are kind of rate here in America, I watch Northern Mudlarks and they showed Codd Bottles on there and I was happy to get one here.
Other types of closure were around at the same time as Codd bottles, but the Codd stayed, it was a gimmick which worked very well. It only failed because the marble would get dirty when the bottle was stored and then it would end up in the drink.
it really depends on the rarity of the specific bottle, and the quality of how it’s held up over time. special colors or embossing might raise the value. i would look on websites such as ebay to see if anyone else has any listings for the same bottle and see how they price theirs
What even counts as a country invention? If a person had Russian citizenship but invented something with the education and resources in Germany, would you call that a German or Russian invention?

We like them too. We have a small collection.
My great grandfather, Charles Bottomley Inman, was a mineral water manufacturer. I still have a codd bottle bearing the company name.
Excellent bit of family history
Love this thank you ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Ah yes Spreckley's, I've heard all about them, coming from Droitwich
How is the marble put in the bottle in the first place? Have a wide neck, insert and then narrow the neck?
the bottle is made without the top and once the marble and gasket are added, they apply glass to make the lip :)
@@clarapittman2884 awesome thanks
Thx ☺️
Good video
Thank you
Why not just have threads on top of bottle, like they have today
Just wasn't done until much later.

That's right.
How much code bottle price sir, I have a bottle.
Not sure. They're not worth a great deal as they were mass produced.

Codd was an American so not a British invention, a British patent no doubt.
Hiram Codd was born in 1838 on the 10th January in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk.

Do start a collection. It can get quite addictive.
