Silver Cork Bottle Stopper
This is a vintage silver cork bottle stopper. The stopper features a hallmarked silver collar, likely dating to the early to mid 20th century, affixed to a natural cork body. The silver collar is intricately detailed, adding a touch of elegance to this functional bar accessory. It would have been used to reseal opened bottles of wine or spirits, preserving their flavour and preventing spillage.
Condition & Collectibility
The bottle stopper shows signs of age and use, with some minor wear to the silver and slight compression of the cork. Despite this, it remains a charming and collectible piece of vintage barware. Collectors of silver, antique bar accessories, or those interested in preserving a piece of history will find this stopper a welcome addition to their collection.
